Thank you to those who responded.
As yet there is no defined link between cd and ovarian cancer.
Possibly/probably due to the under- and misdiagnosis of CD which leads to a
paucity of studies regarding same. Which means, of course, that neither is
there a disproved link between cd and ovarian cancer. There is quite
possibly a strongly suspected link since gynecological cancers (ex, ovarian
& breast) are associated with endocrine disorders (causative or resultant?),
as is CD.
A certain author of renown posted the text of the following study:
1: J Endocrinol Invest 1999 May;22(5):390-4
Unusual association of thyroiditis, Addison's disease, ovarian failure
and celiac disease in a young woman.
Another poster wrote at length of CD (suspected & diagnosed) in 3
generations of her family and cancer (breast & non-Hodgkins lymphoma), her
own CD, low thyroid, and painful breasts that responded to iodine
supplementation.
