Fenichel RM et al. - Cognitive-behavioral therapy aims for weight recovery, which can lead to reversal of amenorrhea and improvement in other associated metabolic abnormalities. During treatment, estradiol levels can be followed to assess hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian recovery because estradiol secretion may increase well before ovulation occurs. In patients failing the above interventions, hormone replacement should be considered, but bone mineral density should be followed because patients may continue to lose bone despite treatment with oral contraceptives if nutrition is not improved.
