Impact of weight and/or menstrual recovery on bone density parameters in adult women with anorexia nervosa not receiving oral contraceptives.

A. Women who both improved weight and resumed menses increased BMD at the PA spine and hip, compared with those who neither improved weight nor resumed menses.

B. Women who resumed menses increased PA spine BMD (but not hip BMD), compared with those who did not improve menstrual function.

C. Women who improved weight increased hip BMD (but not PA spine BMD), compared with those who did not improve weight.

Black bars, PA spine BMD; white bars, hip BMD. *, P< 0.05.
