Is it normal to be pregnant with an endometrium of 5mm?

Although the thickness of the endometrium varies at different times, if it is within the normal range, there is usually no need to worry. It is normal. If it is not within the normal range, whether it is too thick or too thin, it will directly affect fertility. There are many reasons for the thin endometrium in women. The thin endometrium has a particularly great impact on the female body. Is it normal if the endometrium is 5mm and you are already pregnant?

The endometrium is relatively thin. Judging from the thickness of the endometrium, it should be a sign of pre-ovulation. It is generally not easy to get pregnant at this time, and the chance of pregnancy is relatively low, but it is possible to get pregnant. If you are already pregnant, it is recommended to do blood hcg progesterone and color Doppler ultrasound examination of the uterine adnexa to clarify the site of pregnancy, observe hormone levels, etc. If all aspects are normal, the patient does not have abdominal pain, and bleeding is also normal. Don't worry, just pay attention to preserving the fetus.

What are the causes of thin endometrium?

1. Endocrine disorders: Women’s emotions have a great impact on the endometrium. Long-term tension and worry often lead to endocrine disorders, which in turn affect the thickness of the endometrium. Therefore, maintaining a healthy and positive attitude is very helpful for the normal thickness of the endometrium.

2. Abortion and curettage cause damage to the endometrium: irregular artificial abortion is particularly harmful to the endometrium. If the middle layer is damaged, the impact is not great, but if the bottom layer is damaged, the consequences will be more serious and it can easily lead to habitual abortion or even infertility. Therefore, for people who do not need to prepare for pregnancy, they must take contraceptive measures. They can consider multiple contraceptive measures and should not take contraceptives frequently for a long time.

3. Endometrial lesions are also an important cause of abnormal endometrial thickness, such as endometrial polyps, endometrial cancer, etc. For the treatment of such thickening diseases, estrogen supplementation can be considered. The endometrium grows under the stimulation of estrogen.

4. If congenital thin endometrium is ruled out, then it should be an endocrine disorder. You can increase estrogen to thicken it, or take Chinese medicine to regulate it. If menstruation is always irregular and ovulation is abnormal, the endometrium will be thin and it will not be easy to get pregnant, but the chance is still great.
