Prepare to want to die if you get glutened during PMS or period. That is the worst!

And since we're on the subject of being glutened while on your period, I have a question. Does anyone NOT get their period until they are 100% 24/7 gluten free? I was always on the Pill, got my period like clockwork. I went off the pill and now I don't ever get my period. Again, it's been 62 days since my last period. Is this common? (Side note: I am not pregnant; I got tested at the Dr.)

I don't know much about not getting your periodbecause of celiac, but I used to get the worst nausea when I hadn't figured out my celiac yet, because of all the diarhea cramps. I sometimes still get it when I have period cramps, the cramping of your uterus can affect your intestines, causing nausea from the riling up of everything, is my understanding. For me, it usually goes away when I take Imodium. Sickchick, do you also have maybe diarhea with your period?

Have you lost a lot of weight prediognosis and after going gluten-free? That may be causing your trouble.

No I actually normally don't get diahrrea with my period. And when I do get it I can eat like 6 Immodium and it's like I didn't take anything at all... nothing I take stops my diahrrea. It's awful.

I am still not gluten-free at this point too b/c I haven't been tested, that is scheduled very soon.

Jewi00008 it could take a while for your body to adjust and readjust after being on the pill. Good luck you must be very frustrated!

Thanks everyone for your replies :) lovelove

i used to get severe nausea and D just on the first day of my period. i would wake up and literally not be able to move or eat anything for hours. at the time i was under a lot of stress and thought that it could be related to that so i quit my job (in addition to other reasons why). after that it got a little better. then four years later i was dx'ed with celiac and now i find that i get continual mild nausea after i ovulate for a few days but nothing near as horrible as what i had before. oh i don't miss those days AT ALL!

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50. US 2024 - Increased Risk of Herpes Zoster Infection in Patients with Celiac Disease 50 Years Old and Older Sweden 2018 - Increased risk of herpes zoster in patients with coeliac disease - nationwide cohort study

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Flash1970 · Posted

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.
