How Much Can A Uterine Lining Grow In 4 Days?

Hello, I am wondering how much a uterine lining can grow in 4 days. I am curently going through a IVF cycle. I have been taking Lupron for a week or two and i just went for my ultra sound on Feb 10th which was the day i started my stem meds (Follistin, and a one time HCG booster shot). When the lady called me to tell me my results she said that all my hormons looked good and she said my uterine lining was 4cc! I am supposed to get my next ultra sound on Feb 14th and my egg retrieval is Feb 21st. I m very scared that my lining will not be thick enough. I ve been drinking Red Raspberry Leaf tea and taking L-Arginine since i was told about my lining. I m very scared as this is my first IVF.

Hello
I have gone through your query and here is my opinion.

A thick, receptive, nourishing uterine lining is the best possible environment for the embryo, and the ideal lining is at least 7 to 8mm thick.

Your uterine lining was 4 mm and you had good level of hormons(as you mention).This means that you have good chances of having a thick uterine lining for a "healthy" embryogenesis.

So,don't worry because your IVF process will be successful.
Wish you all the best.
