The uterus, which carries the fetus throughout pregnancy, has three layers – the inner layer, the middle layer and the outer layer. The innermost layer of the uterus is called the endometrium. Thick endometrium is very important for normal menstrual cycle and successful pregnancy. Thick and healthy endometrium, which is also known as the lining of the uterus, causes the successful implantation of the fertilized egg inside the uterus. Also later, during pregnancy, the endometrium nourishes the fetus. Estrogen hormone is very vital in maintaining the thickness, freshness and maintenance of blood in the endometrium. An unfavorable level of estrogen leads to thinning of the endometrium. If the lining of the uterus or endometrium is at least 8 mm thick, it is satisfactory but if the thickness is less than 7 mm, it is called thin endometrium.
