    Hello, I would be interested in what BMI have you stopped menstruate? For me it was quite immediately when I started to eat "healthy" and exercise regularly. I hadn't got them for over three years, even a while after recovery. Now I have them again since my BMI has been 20+ over past years (I...

    I know that anorexia can make your period stop, but my case just seems strange. I had one cycle when I was 13. After that, I developed my ED. I think it might've came back when I was 15 for one cycle but I honestly can't remember. Since then, NOTHING. I have been in a constant weight cycle, but...

    So i haven't got my period in just over a year now. At first it was from dropping rapidly to bmi 17, then as i gained weight i was purging up to 5 times a day which i think fucked my body up insanely even though I gained a lot of weight. Now my Bmi is 17 again and still decreasing. I live with...

    Every time I get my period I have such a hard time trying to satisfy my cravings - I'll eat salted nuts and a whole bunch of fruit but it's really hard for me to not binge on something unhealthy. Anyone have any healthy foods that you eat when you're on your period to get rid of the cravings? I...

    I was just wondering how long people have lost their period for, or if they've lost it at all. I lost mine in August last year (almost 7 months ago) and haven't got it since. The thing is I wasn't even restricting that low when it disappeared, I think it went with all the excessive exercise I...

  12. Anorexia Discussions
    Everytime I have my period I get insanely triggered as it makes me think I'm way too fat. I then start to restrict/go all out w super low restriction/fasting/cardio etc, but it only makes my symptoms worse and puts me in a weird loop of just hell. Am I all alone in this kind of thinking, or do...
