Celiac Disease At-Home Testing Kit

Unexplained infertility? Celiac disease may be to blame.

What is celiac disease? It is a hereditary condition where the lining of the small intestine is damaged because of a reaction to eating gluten. Gluten is found in wheat, rye and barley and for folks who suffer from celiac disease, can make it hard for the intestine to absorb nutrients in a normal way. If this problem with nutrient absorption is not diagnosed it can lead to infertility, miscarriage and early menopause.

If you are experiencing problems with fertility, you may want to check with your doctor and have them check for celiac disease.

There is also a new at-home test that is available in Canada called the Biocard Celiac Test Kit. It just involves a fingertip blood sample. If this product is of interest, you can find out more on their website http://www.celiachometest.com/.

Note that you are most likely to get pregnant if you time your lovemaking to occur on the days right before - and on - your ovulation date. Keep in mind that the projected ovulation date above is simply a “best guess” estimate based on your cycle date information. The most accurate way to pinpoint your most fertile time is through the use of urine-based ovulation tests or with a fertility monitor. We have partnered with Early-Pregnancy-Tests.com, the Internet’s leading supplier of preconception products since 2001, to offer low-cost, FDA-approved pregnancy and ovulation tests – with free same-day shipping.

 

Now that you’ve calculated your ovulation date using our ovulation calculator, we have a number of other helpful tools you can use to help increase your chances of conceiving.

 

  • Create your own personalized ovulation calendar! You can even provide an email address so that you receive email alerts of your most fertile days, when you can begin testing for pregnancy, and more.
     

  • Create your own personalized fertility chart! This is a highly accurate way to pinpoint your ovulation date that relies primarily on basal temperature charting. (Visit Early-Pregnancy-Tests.com for an accurate, inexpensive basal thermometer.)
     

  • Connect with others at our online community! If you have questions about trying-to-conceive – or if you just want to vent a bit – we have a wonderful, vibrant community of people who’d just love to hear from you.

Find your most fertile time.
