A member asked:
What method can be used to thin the uterus other than an iud?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Progesterone: Progesterone is commonly used to induce a period and thin the lining of the uterus. This is what is in the type of IUD that is likely being advised, but this can be taken orally as well.
