Nausea linked to perimenopause

Have any of our lady members experienced this?  I'd like to know more.  A non-coeliac friend of mine has been experiencing this but I'm wondering how common it is.  For myself, I do feel nauseous from time to time and wonder if actually it's hormonal rather than cc.  It's too easy to blame everything on gluten!  (Note: It's not actually being sick, just feeling a bit off.)

Hi -

I'm in the middle of peri-menopause with hopes to be done with whole thing very soon (can't come soon enough if you ask me). I have been experiencing weird periodic nausea for the last couple of months and until I just read your post had not considered the two might be linked.  I've actually had a couple of episodes where it felt like I would feel better if I actually threw up, threw up, and did indeed feel instantly better.

I think it might be related more to gastric issues and not perimenopause unless it is migraine-related (perimenopause) and can cause nausea.

Hi Cristiana,

I do believe that a symptom of perimenopause is nausea.  It certainly is for me at times.  I don't actually get sick, but will feel like I'm going to.  I googled the two together and found a bunch of articles...this one is pretty easy reading and makes a lot of sense.

Hope that helps!

How funny!  I was just online and this notification came up!  I'd even forgotten I'd posted it!  It's taken over a year for someone to respond - but thank you!☺️

I don't think it can have lasted very long as I'd forgotten all about it.  However, my friend has had it for years and now says HRT has helped.  

I do get sick headaches occasionally and I do think they are probably hormonal.

Oh, that's funny!  I didn't see the original date, just the recent reply.  I do still get a bit nauseous as I get close to my period.

      Hi,  My daughter has reacted to casein and the symptoms are unmissable- totally gluten symptoms. Joint pain, nausea, intestinal spasms. This has happened ten months after we went dairy free along with gluten free post diagnosis. I am certain she is reacting to casein. We never did oats for the same fear. Not even going to try the Certified one.  It might be worth looking at the meds- xanthan gum, guar gum, and cellulose gum is also what she reacts to. I bet you’ll find them in every OTC for kids.  We have stopped using things like honey -!: ketchup as well. Basically anything coming out of a packet.  My daughter was diagnosed with >100 ttg. Five months later in was down to 13. But then she had literally no symptoms.    As time has passed she reacts to slightest of things. We have obviously stopped casein, we only needed it for butter, because almost every cooking oil has been prone to contamination for us. It’ll be interesting to see what her labs look like in June, which will be an annual antibody test. We decided not to test her at six months this time because I was certain she was reacting to many things . She is six now and was diagnosed at five. I cannot tell you how wrong the doc was when she said oh just don’t eat gluten and she’ll be fine. Doctors send ups packing like that. I wished it was as simple as that.    I hope your daughter feels better soon.

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      I have been dealing with dermatitis herpetiformis as long as I can remember, as of the past 6 years I’ve been able to stay on a strict enough diet to have minimal flare ups, but recently I’ve ate gluten on accident and it has caused a horrible flare up, I’m currently on a strong dose of prednisone because I don’t have an official diagnosis and the doctor would only treat it as normal hives, does anyone have any home remedies to help with the intense itching, any tips would be greatly appreciated!!
