THERAPEUTIC CLASS
Assessment of the menstrual cycle, eating disorders and self-esteem of Polish adolescents
Girls with irregular menses had higher scores on the EAT-26 test in subscales: EAToverall score, EAT-diet and EAT–bulimia, while lower scores on the SES. In our study, we did not observe a significant relationship between exercise intensity, body mass, BMI and menstrual cycle regularity. Low self-esteem among adolescent girls may be a risk factor for eating disorders which could interrupt the menstrual cycle.
