TIMESTAMPS:

04:26- TODAY'S QUESTION: WHY DOES GLUTEN MATTER IF I HAVE DIMINISHED OVARIAN RESERVE?

We see this a lot- you have made these diet changes but don't see anything- so why stay Gluten-free?

"You do have symptoms- your reproductive system has shut down."

05:04- DR. TABATHA BARBER'S INITIAL RESPONSE

"Gluten is one small piece of the puzzle."

Other reactions you could be having that you need to consider

"Going gluten-free works for ⅓ of people, the other ⅔ there is a lot more…"

"Gluten is not the end all be all but it is definitely a big piece of the puzzle for many people."

What about when you don't have symptoms? What should you do?

"If not pregnant, test."
