Menstrual Patterns Among Patients With Anorexia Nervosa and Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder: Does "Junk Food" Play a Role?

Author
Abstract
:

After observing that many patients with ARFID maintain regular menses despite weight loss, we sought to characterize these menstrual differences in the context of specific eating behaviors.
