\"\"<\/a>Anorexia nervosa is an\u00a0eating disorder<\/a>\u00a0that affects mostly girls and women with the majority in their teens and early twenties when it develops.<\/p>\n

With strong therapy and long-term programs many of these girls have a chance of recovering from this psychological disorder that drives them to become thinner and thinner while not recognizing the effects on their bodies or having a strong realistic view of their body image.<\/p>\n

There are many after effects of anorexia that they may experience. Since growth and development of the bones and muscles happen throughout adolescence there may be serious long-term damage to the bone structures.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been estimated that osteopenia (low bone mass) happens in 90% of all patients with anorexia nervosa and 40% will suffer from osteroporosis.<\/p>\n

Boys who are affected by\u00a0anorexia<\/a>\u00a0nervosa may also suffer from stunted growth. Oftentimes boys are misdiagnosed since the majority of the people with\u00a0anorexia<\/a>\u00a0are women. Delay in treatment of these boys can lead to greater issues with osteopenia from lack of\u00a0calcium<\/a>\u00a0in the diet, poor\u00a0weight gain<\/a>, and short stature.<\/p>\n

After diagnosis and treatment of\u00a0anorexia<\/a>\u00a0many women continue to have difficulty with ovulation and menstruation. Although many will have return of normal fertility several years after returning to normal weight and normal eating patterns.<\/p>\n

Women with anorexia can suffer from neurological damage from the lack of nutrition. The heart and other organs are at risk for abnormalities. Electrolyte imbalances are not uncommon as well as\u00a0anemia<\/a>\u00a0from the lack of nutrition. Long-term\u00a0mood swings<\/a>\u00a0and psychological issues such as\u00a0depression<\/a>\u00a0are not uncommon.<\/p>\n

The after effects of anorexia are felt not only by the sufferer but also the family and friends of the person diagnosed with anorexia. A long readjustment period may be necessary while family members learn to trust that the sufferer is learning to eat appropriately and will no longer abuse their bodies. Not only will the readjustment period for the family be long but also the person experiencing this psychological disorder will find that it can take years to readjust their body image and their eating habits to something that resembles normalcy.<\/p>\n

Another after effect of\u00a0anorexia<\/a>\u00a0nervosa is that once a person has starved their body for months, if not years, it may initially rebel with the added amount of food. This can result in bloating from a digestive system that is readjusting to being back to normal. Digestive enzymes must readjust and resume normal production as well as blood flow to the digestive system be reestablished at a normal level.<\/p>\n

Women and men who were formerly anorexic can also have dental issues from the lack of\u00a0calcium<\/a>\u00a0and other nutrients that are essential to build and maintain strong healthy teeth. Many believe that because they aren\u2019t bulimic, or vomiting to rid themselves of food, that the teeth wont become damaged. But, like all other parts of the body which require nutrition, the teeth depend upon what is fed to the body to remain healthy.<\/p>\n

The after effects of\u00a0anorexia<\/a>\u00a0nervosa are less in people who receive early intervention, before major damage is done to the organ systems of the body. The strain of this\u00a0eating disorder<\/a>\u00a0puts a strain and toll on the body functions that are both physical and psychological. Bodies begin to act in much the same way an older person\u2019s body would act causing repair and growth to be slower.<\/p>\n
