Thickening of the womb happens every month during a woman's monthly cycle. It is when the lining of the womb builds up so that if the egg is fertilised it will have a soft, spongy lining to implant into and will be protected throughout the pregnancy If the egg is not fertilised, the lining breaks down as it is not needed, and that is what a period is The thickening of the womb is caused by hormones that trigger it to thicken
