Research on Recent Progress in the Treatment of Thin Endometrium
Sixuan Yang, Tao Xu, Guoying He
The endometrium is an important part of the uterus. The human endometrium is a complex and
dynamic tissue that goes through phases of growth and regression during any menstrual cycle. A thin
endometrium might be relevant to a lower rate of implantation as well as a higher rate of miscarriage.
Several treatments have been developed for thin endometrium, such as granulocyte colony-stimulating
factor, stem cell therapy, acupuncture and physical therapy, among others. These approaches have been
shown to have effects on the endometrium related to reducing the area of fibrosis, increasing the number
of glands, promoting angiogenesis, increasing endometrial thickness, improving tissue structure, and
increasing pregnancy rates. This review summarizes the key role of these treatments in repairing thin
endometrium and improving clinical pregnancy rates.
