My living a week ago was 7, and now it is a six. RE said that if my progesterone is high, i ovulated. If it is low, to be in a holding pattern and check Tuesday. This is my second issue with the FET. First one was with Lupron. Second without. But at last check, i had no ovarian activity

My RE called and my estrogen was at 1150, but lining went from 7 to 6.5. I’ve also gained ten pounds in water. Any ideas? If it’s not hormonal, what is it?

hoosiermama76, I don't have any advice or experience but I didn't want to leave you hanging. Our bodies can be such jerks.

**lurking**
I'm sorry your lining isn't cooperating. It's so frustrating. Have you ever had a Doppler ultrasound to measure blood flow to your uterus? That can give them some information about a thin lining. Also I know some women use viagra to help thicken lining. I know there a few more things that can help, I think one is called Trental and Vitamin E can help as well. And I'm not sure if you are already doing this, but acupuncture can also help thicken lining. I hope it thickens up for you soon!

I am doing accupuncture but am going to look into these other ideas. I’ve read a lot about Viagra, and I am going to mention it.

I'm sorry, that is stressful.
Did you get progesterone levels back yet?
I know the u/s measurements can be inconsistent depending on the angle they take them from and who's doing the measuring, so I would think it's very possible your lining was holding steady.
****PG WARNING****
I had a friend in a local RESOLVE group who needed to try a few cycles adding additional estrogen patches each cycle until she found the dose that gave her a good cushy lining and she felt comfortable transferring. It was a frustrating journey with so many false starts but in the end when she found her perfect FET protocol and chose to transfer, she had success that cycle.

I am inspired. It went back up and further! Thank God!

So, I went today, and my lining was a 7.3, the same as last time. I’m going to give it until Tuesday and see if it changes for the better. He gives me a 40% chance. So, all of this, and this cycle could still be scrapped, or if it is the same, he said historically except for my live IVF cycle, my lining was been a 6-7. I’m going to try Viagara until then and then. Anyone transfer at a 7?

I think a 7+ sounds great! At our office they are just looking for anything over 7.
