Hello, I was talking with my family today and we were discussing Celiacs and the fact that I also have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome..

I then became curious about it and was wondering if any other females here have PCOS as well? Could there be a connection?

It affects my insulin levels and was thinking maybe something about that has to do with it? I dunno..I could be way off- just wondering.

P.S.

Made some amazing gluten-free chocolate chip muffins tonight. Delicious. :)

Hi MaggieMay!!! :)

I have celiac and PCOS.

PCOS diagnosed in 1983, celiac this past January.

Both inherited from Mom.

Not sure if it's related.

PCOS is hormone based.

Celiac is auto-immune based.

Interested to see if anyone else answers this post.

PCOS may be caused by hormones, but we don't know WHAT throws those hormones out of wack.  those of you dx, you are on LOW carb diets, yes?

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
