How to Improve a Thin Endometrium Naturally

The endometrium is the lining of the uterus. It is one of the few organs in the human body that changes in size every month throughout a person’s fertile years. Each month, as part of the menstrual cycle, the body prepares the endometrium to host an embryo. Endometrial thickness increases and decreases during the process.

Two hormones, oestrogen and progesterone, prompt these cycles of endometrial growth and its shedding through menstruation if a pregnancy does not develop.

What factors can cause an endometrial lining to be too thin?

How Do You Know If Your Period is 'Normal'?

Mention to a friend that your unbearable period pain and it’s not unusual to be met with a response like ‘me too’ or ‘I have some painkillers if you need them’.

If you were experiencing multiple days of pain in any other part of your body - your abdomen, your leg or head - you would be promptly seeking help to get to the bottom of it.

Period pain, on the other hand, tends to be brushed aside with a dose of over-the-counter pain medication, a hot water bottle or a prescription for an oral contraceptive pill.

While acupuncture may not be for everyone, it is an often-unexplored pathway to a healthier menstrual cycle and body. It is important to be educated about alternative options to conventional medical approaches to women’s health.

Creating the Space for a Baby

Are you always in a rush? Do you miss breakfast or grab something to eat on the move? Maybe you go from one activity to the next without taking a break? Do you eat lunch at your desk? Or get home late from work and feel so exhausted that you don’t have enough energy to cook, exercise or socialise?

This kind of busy energy can put your body into a state of chronic stress. You’re not in full flight or flight, but you’re not relaxed either. It feels like you’re always on. Always in stress mode. There’s always tension in your body. You might have stiff shoulders, headaches or period pains. These are all signs that you’re too busy.

This kind of busy energy means that you constantly produce stress hormones, which disrupt your sex hormones and can stop you from getting pregnant.

If you want to change this pattern, look at how you can slow down and create space.

Natural Treatment for Menopause

Menopause is the time when women’s menstrual period completely ceases, occurring when the ovaries cease producing the hormones oestrogen and progesterone. Initially symptoms of peri-menopause, such as irregular periods, heavy or light periods, and hot flushes will arise, before the onset of menopause.

On average, women experience menopause at 51 but can occur as early as 40 or as late as 55 years old. About 50% of women will experience uncomfortable symptoms, which could persist for between 2-8 years.
