How common is bulemia amongst males and why do males do it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Much less common: Only about one in 10 people with bulimia or anorexia nervosa are male. The causes are presumably similar to the causes in females. Binge eating disorder likely has a more balanced male:female distribution.
