Abstract

Most patients with anorexia nervosa are adolescent females. They are often exposed to extensive information about dieting, body shape, and food and are encouraged to diet to be thin. In addition, psychological stress born of coping with various adolescent issues seems to trigger anorexia nervosa. The present review discusses the neuroendocrinological pathophysiology of anorexia nervosa and new possible treatments for the disorder.<br>
