What does 2mm endometrium mean?

What is the normal thickness of the uterine wall? This is actually a common sense question, but some women still don't understand it at all, so it has become a concern for women who are preparing for pregnancy. As for the actual thickness, experts point out that it is not fixed because individuals are different and the uterine wall has the characteristics of regular changes.

What does 2mm of uterine wall indicate?

Endometrial thickness of 2mm often occurs in women of menopausal age. Due to ovarian decline and decreased estrogen levels, it causes sexual organ shrinkage, uterine and ovarian hardening, uterine shrinkage, and uterine wall softening. It is the main clinical manifestation of women after menopause. If it occurs in women of childbearing age, this condition is likely caused by premature ovarian failure. It is recommended to have a blood test for six sex hormones to see if the ovaries are still normal. In this case, amenorrhea usually occurs in clinical medicine, and it is recommended to give corresponding solutions based on the actual results. In addition, if it is caused by intrauterine adhesion after abortion or curettage, the endometrium may also become soft. This type of situation requires hysteroscopy to separate the adhesions. After the operation, Progynova will be given to promote the growth of the uterine wall so that the uterine wall can return to normal.

Endometrial thickness is affected by growth hormone

Generally, the normal endometrial thickness varies from 5 to 10 mm. The thickness of the uterine wall varies at different stages:

Proliferative stage: The thickness of the uterine wall is about 9 to 10 mm;

During the metabolic period, the thickness of the uterine wall is about 5 to 6 mm;

During the physiological period: the thickness of the endometrium can reach 8-10mm;

The thickness of the uterine wall changes with the regular changes of the uterus and ovaries. From the 5th day of the menstrual cycle, the uterine wall is in the proliferative phase, and the endometrium continues to thicken until the 14th day of the menstrual period, and can thicken by 3 to 4 mm. In the second half of the menstrual cycle, the endometrium is in the metabolic phase, but it continues to thicken, reaching a thickness of 10 mm before menarche.

Under normal circumstances, the thickness of a woman's endometrium is 8 to 12 mm, and should not be less than 6 mm. Normally, the thickness of the endometrium is around 10 mm in the early stages of pregnancy. The thickness of the endometrium that is conducive to pregnancy is about 8mm, and the best stage for the uterine wall to be pregnant is in the follicular phase.
