My Sisters Infertility

My sister has been trying to have a baby for over 12 years...It is unexplained infertility, her husband and her have been tested for everything and it is all normal. They have tried invitro three times and none of them took. (She did have good eggs and everything was perfect-then she would either have an early miscarriage or not get preggers)

I have five children-with no problems--however after my last baby things went to heck.. I was negative for celiac (blood tests only) but do have a wheat allergy and gluten intolerance. Huge difference for me on the diet...

My sister does have hypothyroidism, and about 10 years ago she had a rash on her butt, that would hurt really bad and blister (like DH-I think) she still gets the rash but she puts whatever her dr told her to put on it and it seems to get better (was never diagnosed)

I keep telling her to try the diet, but she doesn't think it will help...Does it sound crazy for her to try it?

Not crazy at all. Female infertility is associate with celiac disease - particularly early pregnancy loss. No guarantee it will "fix the problem", but there is statistical correlation.

      The Hidden Link Between Celiac Disease and Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (+Video)

      Great article! Important in itself. I do recognize my overall sensitivity to food. It may possibly explain why I prefer to cook when past experience with cooks who may just be a little less hygenic, but do watch glutens have caused stomach upsets.

      Yeah I can increase the amount to 500mg/day and see what happens. I know I haven't been consistent enough in supplementing vitamins.

      @Jmartes71, Have you tried a naturopathic or holistic doctor? Some posters in the past have commented theirs were more helpful than mainstream doctors.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      @HectorConvector, Have you tried taking 500 mg of the Thiamine Mononitrate that you have left? Thiamine Mononitrate may not be as helpful as other forms of thiamine, but since that's what you have on hand. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even at high doses needed to correct thiamine deficiency. No harm in trying it. Neuroplastic...

Neuroplastic changes in the brain may be caused by thiamine deficiency.   These changes can be seen in Wernicke's encephalopathy and Korsakoff's syndrome, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. I googled "Neuroplastic Sensitization syndrome and thiamine pubmed" and see for yourself what it says.   Try taking 500 mg Thiamine Mononitrate and look for health changes.

      This may seem non-relevant but I thought I'd add it here anyway to see what anyone thinks. Many might dismiss it but that's OK. I went through the entire history of this condition from its onset in 2010 or so, including the things that flare it up, and the timeline of what made it worse, the medications that worked and didn't, in ChatGPT (rolleyes I know lol)  and supplied it with all the clinical evidence I've had from tests etc.... After hours of "discussing" with it and finding research it "concluded" it's a chronic neuroplastic sensitization syndrome but of course said I should only get a proper diagnosis from a  doctor. When I saw the doctor on 9th February because this got worse he looked through all my medical history and the course of the "condition". I didn't tell him I'd used ChatGPT or mention what I thought it is because I still don't really know until I have a formal diagnosis. He came with the same conclusion as ChatGPT. Just thought it was an interesting co-incidence perhaps. As for myself, I'm not forming any conclusions til I can really know exactly what's happening and why and what stops it. Only then can I truly know.
