In pursuit of middle ground: understanding the bone benefits of hormonal contraception in women with anorexia nervosa
In the report entitled “Oral contraceptives partially protect from bone loss in young women with anorexia nervosa” (1), Maïmoun et al. analyzed cross-sectional data obtained from enrolling young women living in Southern France to address a clinically discrete and important question about the relationship between bone mineralization and the condition of anorexia nervosa. The main outcome measure was areal bone mineral density as determined by Hologic QDR-4500A dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry of whole body, lumbar spine, radius, and left femur.
