Underweight teen girls
If you’re underweight, it’s not just your energy that may suffer. How do pallid, blotchy skin, thinning hair and brittle nails sound? You may have wondered for a while if you're underweight. Perhaps friends or your parents have mentioned it or perhaps our healthy weight calculator has told you that you may be underweight. Your GP, practice nurse or school health visitor can give you help and advice. It may be that there is an underlying medical cause for your low weight that needs to be checked out. Perhaps you haven’t been eating a healthy, balanced diet. Or maybe you're having emotional problems and use your control over what you eat to help you cope. Often when teenage girls gain weight during puberty they are unhappy with the extra curves round their hips, but this is just your body’s way of preparing you for pregnancy in later life. You may have read magazine features that suggest you cut out certain foods to help you lose weight, for example dairy foods. But this is a time when you especially need dairy products to help you take in enough calcium for strong bones. Replacing milky drinks with fizzy drinks is bad news for your bones and your overall health. Whatever the situation, if you're concerned about your weight, or if anything about your food or diet is worrying you, the best thing to do is to tell someone. There’s lots that can be done to help.
