anorexia and bloating. Hi, I recently asked the question about anorexia and menstruation and bloating and the main response that I got back was not that I was bloated from lack of menstruation but the anorexia itself. So why am I bloated from anorexia? Okay...what makes anorexic people bloated? And what can I do to make it go away, besides eating? Help?

Anorexia would not have caused the bloating. Bloat is typically caused by trapped gas in the stomach, caused as a result of undigested or partially digested food fermenting in the stomach and/or intestine.
Sadly, something I know all too well. I am not anorexic (although was many years ago and am now recovered) but I do have digestive problems.
The thing you have to remember is that if you don't eat, when you finally do eat something, your stomach will have trouble digesting it because it won't be used to it. The only way to sort this problem in your case is to start eating regularly and healthily. If you do that, you'll feel much better, not just in your stomach but in general. ]
hey i just have to say you need to EAT! there is no reason why you shouldnt be eating. your bloated because you dont have anything in you tummy. its only acids thats not good you need to get help and fast because you can die from that if you didnt kno and im sure you dont want that to happen. If you want to lose weight do it the healthy way not by not eating. ok?!? alright well i hope i helped if not im sorry. if you need anymore help you can write me in my inbox!

your most likely bloated because your stomach is full of liquids and stomach acids. are you getting help for the eating disorder? if your not i would strongly recommend it.. my friend is dangerously anorexic and it is effecting her in a lot of different ways. if your still not going to eat make sure that you take the vitamins that you would normally be having from the intake of food (available from chemists etc) that may also reduce the bloating but im not totally sure?
i hope this helps a little ]
