What harm can a woman get if she is too thin?
If women are too thin, it will also bring some injuries, such as gallstones, gastroptosis, osteoporosis, and even lead to lifelong infertility. First of all, it may lead to gallstones and gastroptosis: bile secreted by the liver contains lecithin, cholesterol, bile salts and so on. If the calories are not enough, people who are too thin will consume fat faster, change cholesterol, stimulate the liver to secrete too much bile, increase the viscosity of bile liquid, and suck out crystalline sediments, which will lead to gallstones.

When the body is too thin, the abdominal wall of the body is relatively slack and the abdominal muscles are weak. This will make the muscles and ligaments of the stomach in a state of relaxation and weakness, reduce abdominal pressure, reduce the physiological position of the stomach, weaken gastric peristalsis, and eventually lead to gastroptosis. Being too thin can also lead to anemia and osteoporosis: generally speaking, thin people's intake of nutrition is unbalanced. When the intake of iron folate and vitamin b2 in the body is insufficient and the basal metabolic rate decreases, gastrointestinal peristalsis will be weakened, gastric acid secretion will be reduced, and nutrients in food will not be absorbed, which will lead to anemia.

Women with thin bodies are more prone to hip fractures, because their estrogen level is insufficient, and calcium and bone can not be combined normally, thus reducing bone density and leading to osteoporosis. In addition, it can also cause uterine prolapse or hematuria: too little fat in the uterus will make the uterus descend along the vagina. In severe cases, the cervix will droop and even fall off from the vaginal opening, thus forming uterine prolapse, which may also lead to cervicitis or cervical infection. The kidney is surrounded by connective tissue.

When the body fat content is too low, it will cause muscle weakness or tissue relaxation. In this case, the kidneys cannot be better protected. Especially when the kidney is drooping, venous blood oozes out, leading to hematuria. Therefore, women should grasp the degree of weight loss and not be too thin. After all, good health is the most important thing.
