Abstract
Anorexia nervosa is a disorder characterized by loss of weight occurring as a result of a reduced intake of food; it may be aggravated by vomiting, excessive exercise or purgation. Females are affected much more commonly than males; the illness often begins during adolescence and one of its early manifestations is the cessation of menstruation.
