Is Lining Thinning a Side effect of CLOMID?? Please help

[Silpa82]

HI,
Last month I monitored my natural cycle just to get numbers so I can compare them when I go with the meds.
On day 10 last month I had a lining of 7.7mm and this cycle I used 50mg of CLOMID from day 3 to day 7 and went back for ultrasound on day 9. The lining is only 5.6mm.. this cycle on day3 when I had u/s, lining was 5.9mm.
I am really confused with these meds .. are they really helping any or making things even worse??? Please advice
My RE says sometimes with clomid it makes the lining thin and she ordered some estrace( estrogen med ) to make the lining thick...
Also with natural cycle last month I had 1 follicle even with clomid I have only one dominent this cycle. I am going to take GONAL - F tonight.. and trigger shot (Ovidrel) tomorrow. Does it really help to grow another follicle with one dose of GONAL-F??/

Thank you ladies for your comments. Now my RE prescribed me Estrace to thicken lining. If things dont work this cycle, next cyle I will ask them to put me on femera too

I switched from Clomid to Femara because of that specific side effect! The Femara is AWESOME, none of the wicked side effects like Clomid!!

Clomid side effect is thining your uterus lining.  I was on clomid 150mg for at least 3 cycles and i can't get my lining thicker than 5.

Clomid helps ovaries release more than one eggs, but doesn't help on the lining.  I am off clomid for 3 cycle now.

Good luck to you.
