Lining issues

I went in to see my RE today for my CD10 ultrasound/follie check for IUI.  I was shocked to find out I had so many (seven)...and two at over 17 (that's very good for me).  I've been on clomid and did follistim last night, no more meds at this point for me.  But my lining is a THREE.  Ugh.

I started taking baby aspirin with this cycle so I'm thinking that could have something to do with it.  I know clomid messes with lining too, though.  Ugh.  So now I have a few days (maybe three?) before I trigger...to get my lining up to at least a six.  My RE prescribed me Vivelle patches for estrogen...I've been drinking raspberry leaf tea and pom juice, too. 

Anything else you know of to help lining?  Not that its going to miraculously show up in three days or anything but its worth a shot.

Re: Lining issues

  • I'm sorry to hear your lining is so thin. Mine was at a 4 when I had to trigger. I'm really annoyed to hear you are being prescribed something to try to thicken the lining. My doc did nothing. I'm getting a 2nd opinion today and am definitely bringing this up!  I hope you can save the cycle.

  • I had a very thin lining on Clomid -- switching to Femara solved that problem for me.  I hope your patches work!  GL!

  • My RE prescribed me Estradiol when my lining was only 5mm. I started it on a Monday and by that Friday my lining was up to 10mm.

    I think you'll be fine with the patches.
