A member asked:
Loss of period long after recovery of anorexia nervosa. how to recover it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Keep healthy diet: When you have regained sufficient weight you will likely start to have normal periods again. When your body is very low in fat loss of periods is common, and maintaining your healthy weight is a good start. If you are of healthy weight and still do not resume your menstrual cycle, you should consult your gynecologist after a few months.
