The incidence of infertility is rising and innumerable women are experiencing menstrual dysfunction of varying types while their OB/GYN doctors scratch their collective heads and send them off to get IVF treatments or just put them on birth control pills when pregnancy is not desired. Sadly, most of these women will never be properly diagnosed with the real cause of their problems-gluten sensitivity.
Gluten sensitivity is now recognized as a very common genetic condition, capable of developing at any age. It is acknowledged in learned circles as a significant cause of reproductive and hormonal problems in both men and women. It is my opinion that EVERY SINGLE WOMAN with chronic menstrual dysfunctions, otherwise unexplained infertility and any autoimmune condition should be considered as possibly gluten sensitive and thoroughly evaluated and tried on a gluten-free diet.
