How thick is the endometrium to get pregnant?

The thickness of a woman's endometrium will also reflect changes in menstruation to a certain extent, because it is affected by the estrogen level in the female body. Menstruation will only occur when the endometrium is shed to a certain extent, so what is the thickness of the endometrium required for pregnancy?

Under normal circumstances, the endometrium undergoes cyclic changes under the influence of ovarian hormones. As the ovaries undergo cyclical changes, other parts of the reproductive organs also undergo corresponding cyclical changes, among which the changes in the endometrium are the most significant. The endometrium is an indispensable and important link in the process of conception. Under the influence of hormone levels, the endometrium thickens, providing good conditions for the implantation of the fertilized egg and the growth and development of the embryo.

How does endometrial thickness relate to pregnancy?

Experts point out that the intrauterine environment must be suitable for the implantation and development of the fertilized egg. After the egg is fertilized in the ampulla of the fallopian tube, it moves toward the uterus through the fallopian tube while developing, reaching the uterine cavity after 3-4 days, and is buried in the nutrient-rich endometrium after 6-8 days, and then continues to develop into a fetus. It can be said that the development of the fertilized egg and the growth of the endometrium are synchronized.

Experts say: Endometrium that is too thick or too thin will directly affect pregnancy. The thickness of the normal endometrium changes with the menstrual cycle. If the endometrium is too thick, it will be difficult for the fertilized egg to implant. If the endometrium is too thin, it will affect the implantation of the fetus and increase the chance of miscarriage.
