“…In adolescents, lower lumbar bone density is seen in amenorrheic teens compared with those with normal menses, but is not significant when patients are controlled for body weight (31,32).

“…Estrogen has been proposed as a contributing factor to the low bone density in AN because primary or secondary amenorrhea is a nearly universal feature. In adolescents, lower lumbar bone density is seen in amenorrheic teens compared with those with normal menses but is not significant when patients are controlled for body weight (21)(22). Bachrach et al (2) found a significant correlation between change in BMI and change in lumbar BMD in adolescent girls with AN with weight recovery, even before resumption of menses.…”

“…The fact that cadets must meet semi-annual weight checks may drive the behaviors measured with the EDI-2. The biologic mechanism for the observed bone loss is not known although it could relate to a detrimental impact on the skeleton from weight cycling [12][13][14][15][16]. In addition, there could be subclinical hormonal changes, similar to those believed to be the cause of bone loss in females [17].…”
