Abstract
Eating disorders are common, chronic illnesses that frequently arise during adolescence. Because of the impact on nutrition, individuals with eating disorders have significant health consequences, including effects on reproductive health. Adolescent women with eating disorders frequently have menstrual irregularities, though the causes of these abnormalities are complex and vary depending on the type of eating disorder. Teens with eating disorders may have changes in current and future fertility, and eating disorders during pregnancy can have medical and psychologic impacts for both mother and child. Though not well researched, eating disorders in men can affect reproductive health and potentially impact fertility. Lastly, eating disorders in adolescents can have significantly deleterious, irreversible effects on bone health.
