Thin uterine walls can affect fertility. A thin uterine lining may interfere with embryo implantation and reduce the chances of pregnancy. If a woman with a thin uterine lining does become pregnant, she is at higher risk of miscarriage. Women with thin uterine walls are advised to seek prompt medical attention at a hospital. Doctors will actively investigate the underlying causes and provide targeted treatments accordingly. Additionally, women should incorporate more legumes into their daily diet to increase intake of phytoestrogens, which can help thicken the uterine lining.
