Abstract
:

Eating disorders (ED) are associated with adverse pregnancy outcome and pregnancy is associated with both relapse and remission of ED. Knowledge is lacking on the risk of ED relapse during pregnancy and the postpartum period for women in stable remission. This study examined the occurrence of perinatal ED relapse as well as obstetric and postpartum outcome in women with at least a 6-month ED remission before pregnancy.
