This article provides an overview of the endocrine changes associated with malnutrition and underweight. This overview serves as a basis for understanding the other articles in this special issue, which deal with the health risks associated with being underweight. In this context, the differences between underweight in anorexia nervosa and in constitutional thinness are of particular importance in assessing the impact of intentional weight loss. In this context, the regulation of hunger and satiety deserves special interest, as this is the area in which the intentional influence on body weight comes into play. Clinical consequences on, for example, fertility, bone metabolism, the homeostasis of, for example, serum glucose levels, or body temperature have been observed for a long time; nonetheless, the medical responses, apart from vitamin supplementations and advice to gain weight, are still limited. Therefore, emphasis was placed on the potential improvement of outcomes through the administration of central or peripheral hormones. Studies were identified on PubMed via a selection of relevant keywords; original texts that were cited in reviews were studied where it was advantageous. This review found some promising data on bone health and the administration of transdermal oestrogen, which is not yet widely used, as well as distinct hormonal markers to differentiate between CT and AN. We concluded that the continuous efforts to investigate the role of endocrinology in underweight and\/or anorexia nervosa lead to outcome benefits and that more and higher-powered studies are needed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu15163509","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,9]],"date-time":"2023-08-09T10:21:50Z","timestamp":1691576510000},"page":"3509","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Endocrinology of Underweight and Anorexia Nervosa"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Christian","family":"Fricke","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Schoen Klinik Roseneck, 83209 Prien am Chiemsee, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0261-3145","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ulrich","family":"Voderholzer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Schoen Klinik Roseneck, 83209 Prien am Chiemsee, Germany"},{"name":"Klinik f\u00fcr Psychiatrie und Psychotherapie, Ludwig Maximilians Universit\u00e4t, 80336 Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"4972","DOI":"10.1210\/jc.2004-0723","article-title":"Alterations in cortisol secretory dynamics in adolescent girls with anorexia nervosa and effects on bone metabolism","volume":"89","author":"Misra","year":"2004","journal-title":"J.
