Anorexia nervosa and got my period?
Question : Anorexia nervosa and got my period?
I have anorexia nervosa and havent had my period for about a year. I was in treatment for almost 8 weeks and put on quite a bit of weight. I have been struggling and havent been eating much since coming out but I just my period back this morning. Why did I get it when I havent been eating much at all lately? Its really confusing and stressing me out!!!

you have your period because even though you haven’t been eating a lot you body is noticing a source of nutrient being introduced so its feeding off of that and trying to get back to its regular track. you should still go to the dr and make sure every things alright especially if you fear you may be slipping back into your old ways of eating or should i say lack of eating

Well,like me. I was anorexic for a year.physically, Im recovered, but mentally Im still holding on.But I have gained a little over 50 lb. in 6 months. My worst nightmare. But I just got mine back about a month ago.your body shuts everything down,like a factory because it doesnt have enough power to keep it running.”Production” starts after they get all the lights and everything up and running again. sorry for the odd metaphors, I just wrote it down without thinking about the wording.
