Is it possible to conceive with 7.6 mm of uterine thickness?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

From your query, I understood that you have a previous history of miscarriage, and a follow-up scan showed a 13 mm endometrium thickness. A 13 mm endometrium thickness is borderline, which means you may or may not have required a surgical evacuation at that time. Also, endometrial thickness is not a valuable guide, and we consider the clinical parameters like bleeding per vagina as more important for opting for evacuation.

I have gone through your recent ultrasonography report (attachment removed to protect patient identity), where the endometrium is 7.6 mm. It is fine, and I must say it has nothing to do with your previous poor pregnancy outcome.

Both the ovaries are also normal, and this is essentially a normal scan report.

Could you elaborate for me on whether you have any associated disorders as evidenced in your past case history?

Please do blood for Hb gm percent (hemoglobin), TC (total blood cell count), DC (differential count), platelet, LFT (liver function tests), total cholesterol, urea, creatinine, FBS (fasting blood sugar), and PPBS (postprandial blood sugar).

If such is the case, then you need a detailed treatment of those conditions first. Otherwise, there is a possibility of another similar mishap. If you are fit at present, then just start to have Folic acid 5 mg tablets once a day. This will help prevent your pregnancy developing a few congenital anomalies.

I hope it helps.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

An endometrium thickness of 7.6 mm is fine according to the day of the cycle you have done the USG (ultrasonography). This thickness is different from the previous endometrial thickness of the miscarriage. As I told you, there is no relationship. For conception, you need a thick endometrium.

Do not get demoralized only after two months of trying. You should try for at least six to nine months before opting for an obstetrician and gynecologist consultation.

Ideally, we advise waiting and counsel the patient for timed intercourse only to conceive. This means you try to have sex from day 10 to day 16 of your cycle regularly, which is the fertile period. You do not have to do those tests if you are disease-free. I have only enumerated those, as I have seen some diseases in your past diagnosis history. Just start the Folvite (Folic acid) tablet.

I hope it helps.

Thank you.
