Abstract
Purpose:

Methods:
Treatment with luteal phase progesterone support after oocyte release despite attainment of a maximal thickness of 4 mm.
Results:
A pregnancy and successful delivery were achieved.
Conclusions:
Pregnancy is possible with only a 4 mm peak endometrial thickness, at least when follicle maturing drugs are not used.
