Probiotics And Irritability/pmt

Just a little poll to throw out there.  Has anyone else had any significant results from taking a good probiotic with post exposure healing and also PMT symptoms?  I was really getting worried because I was on the perfect diet...totally clean, no possibility for contamination from any of the foods I am sensitive to, but still getting the itchies, irritability, brain fog etc.

 

 It took ages for me to find a completely dairy free probiotic with nothing else in it.. no FOS etc.  I am amazed already from the first month cycle that somehow my pmt seemed to only arrive 5 days before period and if it got bad I took a probiotic and a good drink of water and everything would calm down. And the itchies are much less, energy better etc.  Is this just a fluke and it'll all be back next month, or has anyone else found that probiotics have really helped them?

I never put probiotics and reduced PMS symptoms together... but I definitely feel better all around when taking probiotics and digestive enzymes.  Having balanced gut flora is essential for overall health so I wouldn't be at all surprised if it helps get your hormone levels evened out - which can ease PMS.

      TTG IgA and IGA elevated mildy

      It's not allergies. Segments of the protein in corn, yeast, and dairy resemble segments if the protein gluten. Our antibodies get triggered on the segments no matter where they are from. Then the antibodies get really confused and attack our own cells which have segments resembling the protein gluten in the cell membrane. Hence, Celiac is an autoimmune...

      TTG IgA and IGA elevated mildy

      All of my other labs are normal though, CBC, metabolic, dexa scan, vitamin levels, ema, giladin peptide igg iga, etc. Could other allergies like corn or yeast raise this? Should I have allergy testing done for other things?

      TTG IgA and IGA elevated mildy

      @thejayland10, The fact that your tTg IgA is slightly elevated after ten years gluten free suggests there's something going on. We want all the antibodies to go away. As long as they are around, our body is in a state of inflammation that can have long term deleterious effects outside of the gastrointestinal tract. Have you had your thyroid checked...

I don't feel me.  What else can I do? There is something else I could check like vitamins I'm currently taking Ginkgo Biloba as a supplement. how can I find out why Menier's?

I started a gluten free diet and I have some days better than others but I'm completely lost. I don't know where to go next.  What should I do next?

Did you have a test for Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)?   Symptoms of hypothyroidism can be very subtle in the early stages.

Have you had your thyroid checked recently?   Hashimoto's thyroiditis can raise tTg IgA antibodies without gluten. Maybe you're getting gluten in your diet or from shampoo/toiletries.  Maybe you've developed an intolerance to other foods, like dairy, oats, corn, or yeast.  One my vitamins used brewer's yeast for a B12 source which, of course, made me ill.  One really has to be a bit of a detective.   Do think about giving the AIP diet a try.  The AIP diet is strict at first, allowing the immune system to calm down.  Later more foods are added back in slowly, checking for possible reactions.
