what is considered a good lining measurement?

Re: what is considered a good lining measurement?

    My RE wants at least 7mm but 8mm is better. But it depends what day the measurement is taken b/c the lining will grow on average 1mm a day.

    I should clear this up, that is to say 8 or higher by the time of transfer.

    Thank you.  I always appreciate your help.

    I might have to lay off the raspberry leaf.  I am 9.58 and I won't have my retrieval until Monday or Tuesday.  I *think* more than 14 or 15 is too thick.  I noticed that at my next appointment they are checking my progesterone(maybe they always do, I dunno). The doc didn't check that today.

    ETA - lining thickness

    I had this very issue with my lining for this current FET cycle.  Mine was about 5.6 one week before originally scheduled ET, which was delayed one week.  A week later my lining was about 7.75 and I got the go ahead as the RE thought my lining looked a LOT better on the u/s and I still had four more days to grow it.

    I don't know these things.

    My RE wants over 8, and he's said that while it can be too thin, it really can't be too thick. I mean, I suppose if it were a 30-something, then yeah, that'd be too thick.

    For the record, mine was almost 15 at the time of transfer and our RE said I get a "gold star".

     

    12 long, hard years of TTC-
    Miscarriages, losses, lots of treatments & drugs & IVF

    I'm not sure what the optimal lining is. My RE does IUI with a lining slightly under 7but I think that most doctors want at least a 7 and preferably 8. My lining was thin, around 7, for at least 2 IUIs which they attributed to Clomid.
    TTC since 2007, 3 IUIs- BFNs
    4/2011, Gonal F cycle cancelled low estrogen
    5/2011, surprise BFP but resulted in m/c
