Thin lining
« on: 02/05/08, 08:09 »

I've just received a positive result from a pregnancy test and a blood test. I think I'm about 4 weeks pregnant but am concerned that my uterus lining will not be thick enough due to previous tests and light menses and therefore I may miscarry. Does anyone know how long it takes for the egg to move down the tubes and embed in the lining of the uterus?
Thanks

The uterine linig constantly changes throughout the menstrual cycle.  At about the time of ovulation, it needs to be greater than 7 mm thick.  Earlier in the cycle, it should be thinner than that.  Your concern about endometrial thickness may not be an issue if the measurement was not done at about the time of ovulation.
Good luck.
