What Does Double Endometrial Lining Mean?
Question: Hi, I had a trans-vaginal ultrasound today and the tech said I had two layers of lining that seemed to be facing each other. Any idea what that means?
Brief Answer:
Bicornuate uterus ?
Detailed Answer:
Hello
I understand your concerns about 2 layers of lining facing each other.
This lining is called endometrial lining and is always only one. If there is another lining this is probably Bicornuate uterus ( meaning 2 wombs).
Please attach a picture if you have. Also please mention if you have bore children in past or had preterm deliveries which will make easier to identify.

Thank you for answering me so promptly.
I do not have a picture available.
I have had two children,and one blighted ovum "Miscarriage"
I am almost positive she said I have double lining, she was measuring both separately and they seemed equal in measurement.
I do know that she said the two were facing each other...and said it as if it was weird.
Sorry to be so vague.

Brief Answer:
Technician is likely to be wrong
Detailed Answer:
Hello again,
Thank you for writing back to me with answers.
Since you have had 2 children, technician is likely to be wrong. This cannot be 2 lined or Bicornuate uterus.
Please see your gynecologist to confirm the same.
Hope I have been able to address your concerns, please do feel free to ask me if you have any doubts.
Wishing you great health.
Best regards.

Brief Answer:
Wrong report
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I think technician has got confused. There cannot be anything like that.
But then it is not possible to comment without ultrasound scan picture and full report. I am sorry about the same.
