Can I get pregnant if my endometrium is too thin?

The uterus is an important reproductive organ for women. It directly determines whether a woman can easily conceive. For example, if the endometrium is too thin, it will affect fertility. The thickness of the endometrium changes periodically. It is also closely related to gynecological diseases and daily care. If the ability to conceive is relatively poor, you must go to the hospital for corresponding examinations in time.

Can I get pregnant if my endometrium is too thin?

Thin endometrium means that under the influence of certain estrogen, the endometrium cannot reach 8 mm during ultrasound. These factors may result in the egg not being able to implant properly, thus preventing conception from occurring as planned. If estrogen cannot reach a certain level, an ultrasound at this time will find that the thickness of the endometrium is less than 8 mm. This cannot be used to diagnose thin endometrium, but only means that the cause is insufficient estrogen. Ultrasound is usually done in the middle of the menstrual cycle to verify that the follicles are mature, for example, 8 mm in diameter and the endometrium is less than 8 mm, and the estrogen level is checked at the same time. Some patients have a thin endometrium due to poor recovery from artificial abortion. Therefore, what tests patients need to do and when to do hormone level tests can only be determined after a preliminary examination in the hospital. If the thin endometrium is caused by estrogen deficiency, you can go to the hospital's gynecology department for a blood test, and then thicken the endometrium by supplementing estrogen. If it is due to other reasons, Chinese medicine conditioning and medication are needed.

What does endometrial thickening mean?

1. Thin endometrium due to kidney deficiency is more common in women who have not conceived. Generally, the menarche is late or the menstrual flow is too small, the secondary sexual characteristics appear late, and the estrogen secretion is insufficient after menstruation. Common symptoms include short menstrual period, small menstrual volume, light red menstrual blood, as well as dizziness, tinnitus, back pain, weak legs, and heel pain. 2. Thin endometrium due to blood deficiency is more common in women between 30 and 40 years old. It is mostly caused by spleen deficiency, poor appetite, malnutrition, excessive weight loss, excessive fatigue, long-term illness and other reasons. In this case, the thin endometrium can easily lead to amenorrhea and cause endometrial proliferative disorders. Common symptoms include scanty menstrual flow, light-colored menstrual blood, which stops within one to two days or stops with just a few drops of fluid. Symptoms may also include dull pain in the lower abdomen, dizziness, palpitations, sallow complexion, pale nails, pale lips and tongue, and dry skin. 3. Thin endometrium due to blood stasis is more common in women who have incomplete discharge of lochia after delivery or have a history of gynecological surgery or abortion. Due to the surgery, blood stasis is retained in the uterus, causing adhesion of the endometrium and poor blood circulation, resulting in scanty menstruation, purple-black menstrual blood with clots, and stabbing pain in the lower abdomen.
