Does anyone have Keratosis Pilaris as a skin condition related to Celiac and *NOT* DH? (I do)

I would put my money on hormonal imbalance.  I had KP after my doctor included testosterone in my hormonal cocktail to combat some pretty severe perimenopausal symptoms.  It resolved once we dropped the testosterone.  But nothing surprises me about celiac disease and what it can do to your body.

This is quite possible, if I am glutened (which happens) I get it bad. I noticed that within a day of no gluten, it clears up nearly completely.

I've had this my entire life. Only since going gluten free, has it cleared up. Hmmm.........

But I also do believe I'm having hormone issues (long story, but I'm 2 years post radiation and chemo, and I think I may be going into early menopause or SOMETHING is up... I have a doctor appointment next week.)

Thanks for the reply :)

My son had keratosis pilaris covering his entire torso at one point. I believe it was caused by elevated thyroid and/or gluten consumption.

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      Yes, wheat is common in most soy sauces now because it speeds up the fermenting process.

      For 16 years I have relied on the website glutenfreedrugs.com to determine if a pharmaceutical is gluten-free. The website has been down for at least a week. Does anyone have any information about this outage, the status of the website founder and maintainer pharmacist Steven A. Plogsted or a phone number? I did not get a response for my email to glutenfreedrugs@gmail.com in October of 2022. Steven did respond to my emails in 2012. Thanks.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Beverage · Posted

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.
