9. Growth Deficiencies

If left untreated during childhood, one major symptom of celiac disease is growth problems. These can include a short stature, weak bones and poor bone growth, and problems advancing through the stages of puberty. This can result in a lack of facial hair, muscle development, and poor sexual health, or a reduction in sexual maturity.

While usually not too incredibly severe, these symptoms are particularly troubling in how easy it is to prevent them.
