Nutritional and Endocrine-Metabolic Aberrations in Women with Functional Hypothalamic Amenorrhea1

Abstract
The development of functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (FHA) in weight-stable, nonathletic women has long been thought to be psychogenic in origin. This study was designed to gain insight into the possibility that nutritional deficits and compensatory endocrine-metabolic adaptations contribute to the development and maintenance of FHA of the psychogenic type.
