I have problems with a thin lining but my RE says that you can carry to term with as little as a 2mm lining so keep the faith :0)

I got pg twice with thin lining but it wasn't that thin.. i think mine was around 6.  My dr used to give me and E2 shot the day of trigger to try to thicken my lining before implantation.  

Are you clomid? Clomid is known for causing thin lining because it can lower your estrogen levels. If you have a thin lining, injectables are usually the better way togo.

Best of luck to you!!

yes i am taking clomid and they told me it was because of the clomid.. i have had lots of trouble with the clomid.. i get very blurry vision and other visual disturbances and weight gain along with a thin uterine lining.. they told me i will be taking injectables next cycle.. they told me even though my lining is 3 that it's triphasic and he still wants to do iui on friday..  he said sometimes they implant in tubes or outside the uterus where there is not an ideal thick uterine wall so he said it could implant and carry to term that the odds r just not as good..  hmm i don't know this is scary and confusing

injectables don't thin your lining the way clomid can sorry

are you on clomid?  clomid thinned my lining and I had to go to injectables because of it.. then I got pg my second cycle.  Also i have heard that some take baby aspirin to help their lining.
