If I have Endometriosis...?!

If I have Endometriosis...?

would my uterus lining be thinner or thicker throughout my cycles? I went to have an ultrasound when I was on CD19. My OBGYN stated that my uterus was thick, which was good. I did not ovulate until CD31. Would my uterus allready be thick that early before Ovulation? I wasn't sure how your uterus lining would be effect if someone had Endometriosis.

Thanks in advance for the help and information!

Hey Sammi, thanks for the answer! Congrats on your pregnancy! :] As for your questions, yes, I do my BBTand I have the Taking Control of Your Fertility book. So how long did it take for you to conceive?

Same with me! I had a thick uterus lining before I ovulated and it was really thick when I ovulated, because like you- I ovulate SO late into my cycle.
During the first part of our cycle, our bodies are releasing estrogen- which helps build up our uterus for implantation. When we ovulate, estrogen stops and progesteron begins to be released. If there wasn't an egg implanted, your progesterone will drop and shedding of the uterus will begin (menses).
So, it sounds to me as if you don't have Endometriosis. It sounds as if you have long cycles, like me! And I'm 9 weeks pregnant!
Are you taking your BBT? It's helpful in knowing if your second half of your cycle (luteal phase) is normal or not. Your BBT should remain high for 14-16 days. If it remains high for 18 consecutive days, congrats- you're pregnant!!

Good luck Ashley!
