The correct answer is D. osteoporosis and amenorrhea. Osteoporosis occurs due to lack of nutrition often and it is the main source of broken bones in people. Amenorrhea is an abnormal absence of menstruation. Both can occur in female athletes, or any females actually, who subject themselves to extreme weight loss diets. They can be fixed with proper treatment but can be dangerous.
