Guest guest Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 Hello... A friend of mine was anorexic for some time and her periods stopped. She has now been normal weight for around six months but has still not had a period for 18 months. She does not want to see a doctor as she has been disillusioned with their pill-popping approach, and has brought herself out of her depression and anorexia herself. However, she is worried about the fact she's still not menstruating. I asked her about her diet, and basically she eats lots of veg and fish, but rarely eats red meat and is still in the " saturated fats are bad " tradition. She's going to include more red meat in her diet. I thought organ meats might help (though she's not keen on this) - are there other things she should make sure she includes? Thanks for any advice you can give. If this has been covered before I'm sorry - if anyone can narrow down the timescale, I'll do a search instead. Thanks, Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
