What is Female ASD Prevalence & Anorexia Link about?

This study investigates the prevalence of anorexia nervosa (AN) among females with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) and estimates the true prevalence of female ASD. It finds that up to 80% of females with ASD may remain undiagnosed by age 18, with a median prevalence of 6% for female ASD and 8.3% for AN in ASD. The research emphasizes the importance of recognizing ASD in females for better mental health management and discusses the challenges in obtaining accurate epidemiological data.
