Unrealistic: "Thigh Gap" is a global cultural phenomenon which originated not long after a Victoria Secret Runway show. Keep in mind these girls are unusually tall and unusually thin body shape. This is not ideal for most women. Since it's origins, it has become the subject of many teen girl blogs and is highly associated with disordered eating. Ice question? you need some bloodwork r/o vitamin deficiency.

Yes: If no body fat you will begin to have no periods.ultimately it leads to infertility and osteopenia ,if you become thin enough.
