Uterine Lining Support Protocol



Practical Tips:

  • Keep Feet Warm: The Kidney meridian starts at the feet, and cold feet may block reproductive Qi. Wearing warm socks or soaking the feet in warm water can increase warmth and blood flow to the pelvic region.

  • Protect the Abdomen and Lower Back from Cold: Cold can disrupt blood flow to the uterus. Use warm clothing, hot water bottles, or warm compresses to keep these areas warm. Do not use direct heat on the abdomen following ovulation if you are actively TTC.

  • Warm Foods and Drinks: Focus on warm foods like soups, stews, and teas to maintain internal warmth, promoting Blood circulation and Qi flow.

Foods to Focus On:

  • Increase Blood-Nourishing Foods: Beets, spinach, black beans, pumpkin seeds, and liver enhance blood flow and support the uterine lining.

  • Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Include wild-caught salmon, sardines, flaxseed, and walnuts to reduce inflammation and promote a healthy uterine lining.

  • Protein Intake: Adequate protein from lean meats, legumes, nuts, and seeds aids cellular growth and repair.

  • Reduce Inflammatory Foods: Minimize processed foods, refined sugars, and trans fats to reduce inflammation and improve endometrial health.

Supplements to Build Lining:

(Consult your healthcare provider before starting any supplements, especially when trying to conceive.)

  • Methylated B Vitamins: Include methylated B6, methylated B9 (Methylfolate), and methylated B12 (Methylcobalamin) to regulate hormones, improve blood flow, and enhance endometrial thickness.

  • Bovine Liver Pills: Rich in heme iron, vitamin A, and B vitamins, these improve blood flow and nourish Blood, supporting endometrial health.

  • L-Arginine: Enhances nitric oxide production to increase uterine blood flow. (Avoid if you have a herpes virus variation, as it can trigger outbreaks.)

  • Vitamin E & Vitamin C: Antioxidants that support blood flow and improve uterine lining quality.

  • CoQ10: Supports mitochondrial function, reduces oxidative stress, and enhances blood flow to reproductive organs.

  • Melatonin: Reduces oxidative stress, supports healthy hormone levels, enhances uterine blood flow, and improves endometrial growth.
