A member asked:

Is it good to use progestrone capsule every month for thin endometrium layer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Janis Fee answered

Brief reply: Again, i dont know all the details, but a thin endometrium is usually due to low estrogen( mostly produced by the ovaries) not the low progesterone.
