Chronic Non-bacterial Prostatitis

Some cases of Chronic Non-bacterial Prostatitis are caused by a gluten intolerance - I know because I had it and have now eliminated the prostatitis symptoms by eliminating gluten. I still occasionally eat gluten on accident and get some of these symptoms back(lasts about 24 after consuming gluten) but go away again when I stay away. I have it almost figured down to the hour of when I will experience the symptoms.

I am not going to claim that 100% of the cases are caused by gluten intolerance but I would make an intuitive guess and say that maybe 25% of all Chronic Non-bacterial Prostatitis cases are caused by an intolerance to gluten.

I don't know if there have been any official studies but there was some info on Wiki that it may be linked and I have found a couple other posts on the web that they can attest to this as well. This is important because currently there is no known cause or cure for Chronic Non-bacterial Prostatitis. This information may also help to track-down undiagnosed Celiacs as someone could contact patients being treated for Chronic Non-bacterial Prostatitis and/or urologists to test for an intolerance.

Thanks.

Odd, I was just diagnosed with this in January. Unfortunately I live next to a wheat field and until I get my degree I am stuck in this predicament.

Have you found anything that can lessen the symptoms?

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
