Hello everyone. I am still learning as I was diagnosed on 12/8/05. However my question is this....I have been getting sick less frequently but....I think I have nailed it down to one thing: sexual intercourse. Could this be a source of cross contamination?? I called the doctor's office and of course the nurse had "never heard of this...but will check." Anyone???

There is a whole thread about this......Hopefully someone will find it. But I'm pretty sure the answer is no in terms of gluten.

I don't think so. Especially not from genital contact.

I can see it now, "Not tonight, honey, you had pasta for dinner."

I had asked about this before too because I do tend to get glutenened like symptoms after being intimate... Even without kissing... so even though the scientific evidence points to the contrary, I'm not convinced! :rolleyes:

You aren't using any other products are you? Like lubricant? Hands can be contaminated as well, so you really have to make sure they are clean. Genitals are full of mucous membrane tissue.

(I taught sex ed last semester)

Well, how clean is your partner? If he had crumbs on him and you kissed (or etc) that area, you would very easily get gluten.

Maybe you're just allergic to your husband :lol::P

Just kidding...

Your systems kind of go into overdrive and all kinds of chemicals are released, maybe you picked up gluten from somewhere and you react more because all of your body chemicals get thrown around? :huh:

Best I could think of... :blink:

Actually, I was kind of allergic to my ex. It was the oil in his skin. My face got all these little tiny red bumps every time we saw each other in the beginning, when we had a long distance relationship. When we saw each other regularly (not long distance) I got used to him and didn't have those skin problems. Weird.

      Any bad experience with King Arthur Gluten-free bread flour

      By Sanna King · Posted

      King Arthur Gluten-free bread flour contains wheat starch, but has had the gluten removed. According to the FDA, it meets the FDA's gluten-free standard of less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten. Has anyone here tried to bake bread from this? If yes, did you have a reaction? Thank you in advance for your time and attention.

      Biopsy confirmed no celiac, low gliadin igg but high gliadin iga?

      By Gliadingoaway · Posted

      So i was eating tons of gluten my whole life until two months ago when i had high gliadin iga. At that time, i tested negative ttg and biopsy confirmed no celiac. I had h pylori and severe gastritis (no atrophy or ulcers).   fast forward today, i avoided gluten and had antibiotic treatment to erradicate the h pylori. I am feeling much better. A few days ago is when i tested negative for ttg, gliadin igg, endomysial iga. But i did test positive for gliadin iga. Pretty strange because i had gluten three days ago (accidently ate mac and cheese and fried chicken after taking the tests) and i feel fine
