Disordered eating and body dissatisfaction in women with non-natural menopause
Women who have undergone oophorectomy appear to be highly susceptible for EDS compared to those with natural menopause, unlike hysterectomized women, whose menopausal transition is less abrupt. While body image was generally moderate to negative across all groups, oophorectomized women showed a stronger focus on weight-related self-esteem. Incorporating eating behavior into clinical care is crucial, especially for women post-oophorectomy.
