Abstrakt: Coeliac disease (CD) is a small bowel disorder known for its intestinal manifestations like diarrhoea and weight loss. Less known are the extraintestinal manifestations of CD like haematological abnormalities but also altered female reproduction and pregnancy outcomes. Especially, undiagnosed CD may lead to adverse reproductive outcomes such as intrauterine growth restriction, stillbirth and preterm birth. In diagnosed and treated CD, adverse pregnancy outcomes might be prevented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
