Hello everyone and Super-sensitives in particular,

Would anyone know if "Prometrium" (oral progesterone- 100 mg) is gluten-free? The PDR's list SEEMS okay, but, who knows?

Thanks!

lisa

I use the cream Pro-gest and have had amazing results with it. I skip the two weeks of cramping and mood swings and my cycle has gone from starting at 27 to 38 days to starting at day 27 or 28.

The site does not say if it is gluten free but I have not gotten a rash and place it in the same place each day.

Thanks, One More Mile,

I've used that for years and had good luck. Unfortunately, I've been bleeding heavily for over three weeks(this kind of thing has been going on for awhile.) and my doctor needs me to stop losing so much blood so I need to take it orally. I'm going to have to try it and take my chances, I guess.

Thanks for your post,

lisa

Hi Lisa,  I'm wondering if you ever found out for sure if the Prometrium (progesterone) is gluten free?  I was just prescribed 200mg and my pharmacist was of no help.  Thanks so much.  Annette

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
