A member asked:

How long does it take for hormone levels to normalize after sever malnutrition?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Too many hormones: There are thousands of hormones and no way to answer your question specifically. Usually essential hormones are quite resistant to things like malnutrition, and the non-essential hormones return to normal very quickly with return to better nutrition. Check w/your doctor if you have concerns.
