Athletic amenorrhea is a variant of functional hypothalamic anovulation (FHA) and concomitant neuroendocrine alterations include hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activation leading to increased circulatory and cerebrospinal fluid levels of cortisol and hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroidal suppression leading to variable degrees of hypothyroxinemia.Amenorrhea is associated with a decrease of estrogen production and an increase of testosterone. On the exterior, therefore, women may have develop excess facial hair and a decrease in breast size.
In addition, estrogen deficiency, or hypoestrogenism, directly affects bone density.The Depletion of Calcium: Osteopenia. Another lesser known fact about amenorrhea is that it leads to the depletion of calcium in your bones.
If the body is not producing estrogen as discussed previously it is unable to maintain levels of calcium in the bones. This depletion is called osteopenia.But using performance-enhancing drugs (doping) has risks.
Take the time to learn about the potential benefits, the health risks and the many unknowns regarding so-called performance-enhancing drugs such as anabolic steroids, androstenedione, human growth.“Previous studies have shown that amenorrheic women runners have decreased dilation in the main (brachial) artery of the arm in response to blood flow,” says lead author Stacy Lynch, M.D. “Athletic amenorrhea has a hormonal profile similar to menopause, when the earliest sign of cardiovascular disease is reduced vascular dilation, which can limit oxygen uptake and affect performance.”.Low bone density is a dangerous consequence of the triad, and the degree of low BMD in young patients is greatly dependent on age of onset and duration of amenorrhea.
47 Low energy availability plays a crucial role in menstrual function and bone health.Teens that are thin and exercise excessively are at higher risk of amenorrhea, the absence of a period. And amenorrhea is linked to decreased estrogen levels, which may be the cause of.The reason for discussing Amenorrhea in female athletes is (1) male athletes do not experience the menstrual cycle and (2) Amenorrhea is more prominent in athletes due to the effect of intense physical activity Yes, males can have low bone mass, eating disorders, or excessive weight loss.Risks Although stimulants can boost physical performance and promote aggressiveness on the field, they have side effects that can impair athletic performance, including: Nervousness and irritability, which make it hard to concentrate on the game Insomnia, which can prevent an athlete from getting needed sleep.
If amenorrhea is caused by low estrogen, this can also lead to thinning of bones (osteoporosis) over time. You teen’s healthcare provider may advise her to take calcium supplements. Loss of fertility. If amenorrhea is caused by lack of ovulation, this means pregnancy.To the contrary, food restriction and purging can result not only in menstrual dysfunction and potentially irreversible bone loss but also in psychological and other medical complications, including depression, fluid and electrolyte imbalance, and changes in the cardiovascular, endocrine, gastrointestinal, and thermoregulatory systems.
8,9 Some of these complications are potentially fatal.In fact, the classic ‘Female Athlete Triad,’ a condition relating poor energy balance to amenorrhea, low-bone density and underweight BMI, has been renamed to Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (or Red-S), a broader, more gender-inclusive condition. Red-S encompasses all the above symptoms as they relate to low energy availability in athletes.
If amenorrhea is caused by low estrogen, this can also lead to thinning of bones (osteoporosis) over time. You teen’s healthcare provider may advise her to take calcium supplements. Loss of fertility. If amenorrhea is caused by lack of ovulation, this means pregnancy.
Athletic amenorrhea is often seen in sports that stress or result in thinness. These sports include gymnastics, ballet, and long-distance running. With the pressure to be thin, some young women may develop eating disorders.
A person with anorexia diets to excess, sometimes to the point of starving. People with bulimia binge (eat a lot at one.The female athlete triad (Triad) refers to the interrelationships among energy availability, menstrual function, and bone mineral density, which may have clinical manifestations including eating disorders, functional hypothalamic amenorrhea, and osteoporosis.
With proper nutrition, these same relationships promote robust health.

I think i have anorexia because i don’t have my period for 2 months, i also take just 700 calories per day and have a 45min workout. i do it excessive workout and super restrictive diet. What should i do to stop this on my own? pls help me
Aids is also caused by an attack.
Sodomy causes an auto immune response.
Most people recover, some cant.
I’m underweight so my parents tell me to eat more and defecate less:/
Hi, I have a 20 month old and still have not had a period since before I got pregnant. I am having blood tests regularly to try and find out what is going on however I started a clean eating journey and got into excerise! I have stopped excersise for a while since I saw your videos I have realised perhaps in need to gain a bit of weight and let my body rest. Have you got a video with the changes to your body when you put on weight, wether you have managed to excerise again? I am curious to know how your body has changed in order to get your periods back.
Thanks sam
200th subscriber!:) Illness and stress, existential crisis and all round confusion and desperation to get better led me to a healthy lifestyle…except for one thing I’ve just not been eating enough! I think this is my final piece of the puzzle to getting back to my energetic self again. It’s going to be strange having to eat more regularly and to adjust to feeling full, but it has to be done. Thank you for your videos lady!
How I got it was my friend suggested a fast we could do for fun and I did it for a week and suddenly got obsessed with it now I practically starve my self like if my mum asks me if I have had anything to eat I Will say yes when I haven’t the longest I have gone is 2 weeks do u think I have it ( I also am dropping weight but I think I’m fat)
I’m not scared of being fat but I am really skinny it got to a point where I’m really weak
A channel with over 1 million subs should not be telling people for 8 minutes that you HAVE to be skinny to have anorexia. It’s disgusting:/
Amenorrhea is a stage when the menstruation is absent during the reproductive years, between puberty and menopause. Around puberty, menstruation begins which normally occur about once a month until the age of 45 or 50 years. If the menstruation does not occur at times when people normally expect it to, considered as Amenorrhea. It may be due to having a very low body mass index, a gynecological disorder, physical stress, premature ovarian failure, etc. Symptoms may occur lack of menstruation, hair loss, vision changes, additional facial hair, etc.
Environmental factors and our changing lifestyle also causes Amenorrhea, which includesChronic diseases (for example, Tuberculosis), Recreational drug abuse, Excessive stress, Malnutrition, Excessive weight gain or weight loss, Anorexia, Cycle suppression with systemic hormonal contraceptive pills, etc.
Herbal treatments for Amenorrhea can be very effective which contains a lot of nutritive elements that help in building the Rasa Dhatu and supporting the production of menstrual flow. Chandigarh Ayurved Centre introduces ‘’Amenorrhea Go Kit’’, which are generally used for the gynecological purposes and to strengthen female hormones. This kit includes – Rajpravartinvati vati, Stri rasayan, Stri poshak syrup, Stri poshak capsules, and Ashwagandha tablets.
I have anorexia purging type. I’ve never really struggled with binging just restricting and purging and over-exercising. I appreciate the fact that there’s videos trying to educate ppl on these mental illnesses and how it focuses on the severity of it. However, it’s very frustrating and unhelpful to focus on being underweight or overweight since it’s more of a unhealthy coping mechanism to deal with underlying emotional issues/trauma/life changes. Of course there are physical side affects of eating disorders but ya gotta treat the brain (emotional needs/mood regulation) to fix the disordered eating and that requires a lot of work and support from others sometimes.
i stopped eating because it feels so wrong to me I only eat little portions and when I have to much calories I purge I try to throw it up and usually do or throw up a bunch of water, it doesn’t make me feel good until it’s over with and i excessively exercise but even then I don’t feel skinny I am scared I will never feel skinny and just keep doing this
My height is 160 and I weight 50 I’m obsessed with my weight whenever I eat anything I regret it soo baaad
What is the medicine for treatment and what is the name of the glass?
I haven’t had my period for 4 months and I don’t know what to do can you help me or some one?
The binge and purge us bulimia. Also you don’t need be underweight to have an eating disorder, my one physician and nutritionist can back me up on that. You video was ignorance.
i don’t know what i have. i enjoy food, but i deny myself food because i feel i don’t deserve it. i even find myself enjoying the feeling of hunger. i don’t care about calories or fat intake. i do, however, critique my body and call myself fat, then respond by denying myself food or eating significantly less food. i have been diagnosed with depression and anxiety disorder. i currently cannot see a professional. i’m not asking for pity or inspirational crap. i just want to know what might be causing this. and strangely, a lot of people on youtube are very educated in this stuff. so… any ideas?
I’m 5.9feet walk loads or try work put even though I don’t have energy, I only eat once a day and bing eat 2rines a week and vomit till I have nothing of not doing that I hurt myself, do t eat on front of anyone for 14years I cook all the time and a feeder and love feeding people but after -16 years like this u get fat u bloat and ya face bloat, and ya belly all the places u don’t want gutted wish I could get out of this shit
I had anorexia and I was in the moderate zone. I literally was given a deadline to recover now I’m in a healthy weight but mentally i’m dying.
I traded an ED for another ED shame
If I had gotten the help I needed i’d probably have a healthy relationship with food plus I still fast, I purge now I drink lots of water so it doesn’t burn my throat and exercise a lot.
My sister Monica is having ammenorhea from last 6 months. She took treatment from #chandigarhayurvedcentre within 1 month her menstruation starts. She is still on medication.
