Hi

Newly officially diagnosed. My wife is very concerned that I may have low sperm count and I am wondering if damage from disease caused this and or will I have better count now that I am on the diet? Or it could be unrelated all together. Just wondering if their is a relationship between the celiac and sperm count. I appreciate feedback!

Infertility in Men:

Infertility in men is generally caused by producing too few or no sperm. The problem may also be the sperm's ability to travel to the female's egg and fertilize it. This is typically caused by abnormal sperm shape that prevents it from traveling in the correct form.

Factors that increase a man's risk of infertility:

* Alcohol consumption

* Drugs

* Toxins in the environment such as lead and pesticides

* Smoking

* Chemotherapy and radiation treatment for cancer

* Celiac disease

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
