A healthy term livebirth in a 35-year-old woman with ovarian failure, hypoplastic uterus and atrophic endometrium after cancer treatment with chemotherapy and radiotherapy was achieved by ovum donation. The detection of a receptive endometrium using a new diagnostic tool of endometrial receptivity encouraged the medical team to carry on with this poor prognosis case. To the best of our knowledge, here we report the thinnest endometrium to date in which a healthy, full term live birth has been described in assisted conception.
