Thin uterine wall generally refers to thin endometrium, and its management methods include:
1. General treatment: Maintaining body warmth, keeping a positive mood, and increasing physical activity may help improve endometrial thickness.
2. Medication: For thin uterine wall caused solely by endocrine factors, medications such as estrogen and progesterone (e.g., Estradiol Valerate tablets, progesterone) may be used under medical supervision to increase endometrial thickness and alleviate symptoms associated with thin endometrium.
3. Surgical treatment: If the thin uterine wall is caused by endometrial adhesions or damage, cold instrument therapy under hysteroscopy and laparoscopy may be required, along with anti-adhesion measures. In severe cases, endometrial transplantation might be necessary.
Patients with thin uterine wall can benefit from including foods rich in natural estrogens, such as soybeans and soy products, as well as meats like lamb and black-bone chicken in their diet, which may also help improve the condition.
