Gluten Ruined My Cycle

After 2.5 years of trying for baby #2 and one miscarriage later, my cycles seemed to be returning to a somewhat normal and functioning state. I have been gluten-free since August. Before that, I had to use fertility meds to ovulate. My last cycle was beautiful--I even ovulated on my own. When my period showed up, I felt sorry for myself for STILL not getting pregnant and gave into a major gluten craving. As a result, my current cycle is a complete mess. There are absolutely no signs of ovulation. Unfortunately, this means that this cycle will probably go on for a long time. I hate that, because who knows how long it will before I can start over and try again.

::pout:: Lesson learned.

Awww, I am sorry that things haven't worked out so well, yet. I know how hard it is to wait and hope.

Maybe things will settle down sooner this time.

Sorry to hear that...Just wanted to let you know that the gluten not only messed up your cycle but it may have contributed to your miscarriage too. So if you want to get pregnant, STAY GLUTEN FREE! And be extra, extra careful once you get pregant. Good Luck!

Yes, my doctor and I agree that gluten probably caused my miscarriage. It happened before I was diagnosed and I was eating gluten like crazy. There was no other explanation for it.

Next cycle, if there is disappointment, eat some Dove chocolate or tacos or ice cream.

Lots of real lay bad but " Oh so yummy" gluten-free foods. :)

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      Yes, wheat is common in most soy sauces now because it speeds up the fermenting process.

      For 16 years I have relied on the website glutenfreedrugs.com to determine if a pharmaceutical is gluten-free. The website has been down for at least a week. Does anyone have any information about this outage, the status of the website founder and maintainer pharmacist Steven A. Plogsted or a phone number? I did not get a response for my email to glutenfreedrugs@gmail.com in October of 2022. Steven did respond to my emails in 2012. Thanks.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Beverage · Posted

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.
