The Female Athletic Triad

After reading about this disorder the first person that came to my mind was my 18 year old niece. She has run competitive track for the past ten years. She has received full scholarship offers from colleges like Kansas State and Michigan, and TCU. With that type of pressure to compete I asked her had she ever heard of this disorder and if she had ever any of these symptoms. Thankfully she said she had not. I gave her a run down of what to look for as her training will greatly increase once she enters college.
