Progesterone

I just read this little blurb on the DFWceliac.org site but there was no story to go along with it...

Did you know that most Celiacs have a hormone imbalance that plays havoc with your body that must be treated to restore your health and well being? This usually includes an inadequate amount of Progesterone which must be supplemented with Natural Progesterone which is not synthetic and matches exactly the chemical formulation of the body

Jessica, what I read in that statement you quoted is not that low progesterone causes celiac disease, but rather, that people with celiac disease, as a result of celiac disease messing with your body's functions, can cause low progesterone.

And yes, 32 is pretty borderline normal, and supplementing might be an excellent idea for you.

Whoa, that's *really* interesting....I am struggling with a very irritating hormonal imbalance right now, and it started maybe a year after the GI issues started. It's still giving me grief, and I *do* notice that it's much worse if I get glutened. It's Progesterone, and I'm supposed to start on a medication for it soon (haven't made it to the pharmacy yet, though...oops). I will have to look into this! I was just thinking I was really unlucky having both thing mysteriously appear at around the same time....

Oops! :blink: You are totally right! Thanks! :lol: I guess I will have to look into supplements in any case... My want to "do laundry" has been much improved since going gluten-free but I still notice days where I am feeling lazy in that department or feeling especially pouty & irritable again.

I do not read this forum very often; sorry it took so long to post this. If you read Dr. Vliet

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia thank you for your reply and the link, that is very helpful to get a visual of just how small of an amount can cause a reaction. I know I am not consuming gluten or coming into contact with gluten from any other source. I will stop touching/tossing bread outside! My diet has not changed, and I do not have reactions to the things I am currently eating, which are few in number. My auto immune reaction just seems so severe. The abdominal pain is extreme. It takes a lot out of me. I guess I will be this way for the rest of my life if I ever happen to come into contact with gluten? I appreciate the help.

      Thankyou I did find out the Infectious disease is the route to go rather than dermatologist. I did reach out to two major hospitals and currently waiting on approval for one of them in Infectious Diseases to call me. I also did have implants ( I didn't know and sense not properly in my medical. Neither did surgeon)in 2006 and there was a leak 2023 during the same time I was dealing with covid, digestive issues, eyes and skin.Considering I " should  be fine" not consuming gluten/wheat, taking vitamins for sibo and STILL feeling terrible.It has to be parasites. I also take individual eye drops prescribed, could there be an issue there? Anyways my pcp thinks I need therapy because again they don't acknowledge my digestive issues because in my records it shows im fine, hintz the reason I had to go back to bay area hospital:(  I thought skin issues maybe sibo related but I feel and have seen and seriously trying not to think about it because it's disgusting.

      oops. I didn't see that before posting or I would have at least referenced it. The two recipes are pretty similar, but I think the newer one is a little simpler/faster. Next time though I will search more before posting.

      I love Middle Eastern food and eggplant, and here is another version we shared some time back:

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
