Untreated celiac disease is associated with fertility issues due to chronic inflammation and nutrient malabsorption (iron, folate, vitamin D). However, the genetic test alone does not confirm active disease; serology (tTG-IgA) and duodenal biopsy are required. Many individuals with risk genotypes never develop celiac. In the fertility context, the test is only a preliminary clue, not a basis for clinical decisions. The evidence for direct benefit of genetic testing in unexplained infertility is mixed. Recommendation: If celiac is suspected (e.g., gastrointestinal symptoms, unexplained iron deficiency), pursue standard diagnostic workup. A DNA test alone is insufficient. Safety note: Do not start a gluten-free diet without confirmed diagnosis, as it can mask symptoms and delay proper testing.","area":"gesundheit","canonical_id":"gesundheit:canonical-cda7a34df1784631cdb265f1","id":"public-cf6d922b40de0502a28f25fa","kind":"qa","language":"en","publication_status":"existing_native_answer_privacy_screened_sources_pending","question":"Evidence check: Zöliakie Test in the context of Fruchtbarkeit","score":20.5093344,"snippet":"A celiac genetic test (HLA-DQ2/DQ8) can indicate an increased risk for celiac disease, but it is not a standalone diagnostic test.
