Answers:
Yes, you do not need to worry!.

1) 1 half year anorexia is not very long-term, luckily!. If you healed your eating disorder after a half year, then the chances are excellent that everything will be fine!.

2) The periodic cycle will come back soon!. Most likely the cycle will be irregular for the first year and then regulate itself!. Do not worry about missed periods or prolonged or shortened cycles; the body will need several months to equilibrate itself and return to a steady cycle!.

3) The growth hormone usually returns to normal without problems!. However, you overall final body length might stay reduced as to compared with a continously well-fed girl!. 5'2 is not so bad for a girl, though, and you might still grow a little bit!

4) As long as you are well-nourished now and choose healthy food, there is nothing to worry about!. In your age, body weight gain is not so important as long as you feel and actually are well-nourished!.

fortunately u are still very young!. if you were 18 or older i would be concerned you may never have a normal period!. but here the thing!. since ur body is so thin it cant afford to lose any blood since ur not giving it enough iron!. when you get to the point where you have a period it should mean ur health has stabilized somewhat!. unless ur doctor hasnt mentioned permanent damage (and they would) u should go back to normal!. im glad u were able to stop being anorexic before it got worse, good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Generally, no!. If you are eating healthily, then you should not get physical problems!. The biggest reason to why an anorexic person has physical problems is due to the anorexic behavior!. However, if you retain physical issues, I suggest you see a doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
