Can you have a miscarriage from starving yourself?


Rate This Answer

Miscarriage It is possible. Anorexia leads to an increased risk of miscarriages and cesarean sections in those who do become pregnant. Miscarriage rates for anorexics average thirty percent, as opposed to sixteen percent for women without the eating disorder. If a woman doesn't miscarry starving yourself while pregnant could eventually lead to birth defects in the child when born.
