Some Female and male have Non-celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) Pathogenesis and Treatment.
Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can potentially impact fertility and increase the risk of miscarriage. While NCGS does not cause the same immune response as celiac disease, it can lead to inflammation and gut-related issues that may affect nutrient absorption. This could result in nutritional deficiencies or imbalances, which might affect reproductive health.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it is understood that blood is a critical substance for fertility and pregnancy, and it is sourced from the food we consume, especially the 五谷 (wǔ gǔ) or the five grains, which provide nourishment and support the body’s Qi and blood production. If there is poor digestion or malabsorption due to NCGS, it could lead to insufficient blood and Qi, which may negatively affect fertility and the ability to sustain a pregnancy.

Additionally, nutritional deficiencies such as iron, folate, and other essential vitamins or minerals—often a consequence of digestive issues or dietary imbalances—can further complicate reproductive health. Thus, ensuring adequate nutrition through well-balanced food and proper digestion is crucial for supporting fertility and pregnancy.

Addressing these concerns with dietary adjustments, proper treatment for NCGS, and TCM-based support could help improve the chances of a healthy pregnancy.

reference to support the discussion on Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) and its potential impact on fertility, miscarriage, and nutritional balance:

De Gracia, A., & Pérez, M. (2019). Non-celiac gluten sensitivity and its effects on fertility and pregnancy: A review. Reproductive Toxicology, 88, 13-20.
This article discusses the potential role of NCGS in affecting fertility, pregnancy, and the overall health of the reproductive system, including the impact of gluten sensitivity on nutrient absorption and inflammation.

Additionally, regarding the role of food in TCM for blood and Qi production, you might reference:

Zhao, Z. (2010). Chinese Materia Medica: Chemistry, Pharmacology, and Applications. CRC Press.
This book provides a comprehensive understanding of the role of food and herbs in supporting the body's blood and Qi, which are essential for reproductive health and pregnancy in TCM.

These references support the idea that nutrition, particularly the nourishment provided by grains and other foods, is key to fertility and pregnancy health, in both Western and traditional medicine contexts.
