ENDOMETRIAL SCRATCHING

Endometrial scratching is the procedure performed by a thin catheter which is used to “scratch” the lining of the uterus called endometrium. It is thought that scratching of the endometrium leads to inflammatory reaction within the uterus and finally improves its receptivity in the following menstrual cycle. The procedure is used to increase chances of embryo implantation after transfer.
