Anorexia nervosa is characterized by significant weight loss, fear of gaining weight, and disturbed body image. It predominantly affects women in adolescence, often associated with dieting and harmful behaviors. Diagnosis involves criteria such as weight loss and amenorrhea. Complications include emaciation and cardiac issues. Lab findings may show anemia and electrolyte imbalances. Management includes behavioral interventions and psychotherapy. Bulimia nervosa involves binge eating and compensatory behaviors, with similar etiology to anorexia. Post-partum psychiatric disorders encompass maternity blues, puerperal psychosis, and depression, which require timely recognition and support.
