Hi! I dont know if anyone can help, but it doesnt hurt to ask. I have been recovered from anorexia for a few years. Unfortunately, for the past five years, I have not ovulated. Even though my weight is in the healthy range, my periods have not returned. The doctors have tried every pill and shot, but no luck. I see on this site that lots of women have gotten pg after anorexia. Has anyone had the experience that they lost their periods for at least five years? Did they ever return? Did you get pg naturally, even though you had anorexia? I just dont know what to do. All I want is to be a mommy! Any help would be very appreciated! Kristin

Hi Kristin,


I have not lost my period for that long, but didn't have one for a little over

Love & hugs, Kristina
