Best Answer

If you are a woman, (most anorexics are) then you will lose your menstrual cycle after you lose enough weight. You get very fatigued. You lose many essential nutrients for your body and start living off your own muscle since there's not enough food. These are just some of many negative effects. If the person refuses counseling to help them with this disease then these are some of the more serious things that will eventually happen to ALL Anorexics: * Because of severe weight loss the organs will begin to shut-down. * Heart failure. * Of course there is also rotting teeth as well as severe Osteoporosis and this can lead to bad bruising and broken bones. The end results of an Anorexic that refuses treatment is death.
