CDAC Feature Article Highlights Celiac Disease and Reproductive Problems

Infertility, recurrent spontaneous abortion, and preterm delivery are among the reproductive problems that could affect women with celiac disease. Men with celiac disease could experience reduced fertility and sexual dysfunction.

The Celiac Disease Awareness Campaign (CDAC) has a new feature article about celiac disease and reproductive problems. The article is part of a series available on the Awareness Campaign website at www.celiac.nih.gov. These feature articles are copyright-free and can be reproduced in their entirety for use in other newsletters or websites.
