Hi!
A blighted ovum is not a consequence of an abnormal uterine (womb) lining---we don't know what causes them, or why they occur.  So that was purely bad luck.

Your lining measuring 6mm is not good--14mm is a more optimal number.  I don't know what medications if any your doctors are using to stimulate your cycles--If you are doing natural cycles, you may want to go to stimulated cycles.  

If you haven't had an HSG or hysterosonogram or hysteroscopy, you may wish to consider one of these procedures, to rule out a structural abnormality of the uterus.

If no structural abnormality exists, the cause is likely hormonal--and a change in your stimulation protocol should theoretically be able to address that!  Also, consider accupuncture during your cycle to increase the blood flow to your uterus--that certainly can't hurt!

Good luck!

Thanks for your response, I wonder why different clinics in the medical field do things differently.

During my stimulated cycle i took prognova, cyglogest, i added aspirin myself because i read that it does help to prevent miscarriage and i was taking folic acid. I have requested for an appointment already. I have just relocated to Canada.
