This study tests whether a treatment called fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) can improve gut health and reduce eating disorder symptoms in young women with anorexia nervosa who have digestive issues.
This study is testing whether a fecal microbiota transplant (a procedure that transfers healthy gut bacteria from a donor) can help teenagers with anorexia nervosa reach a healthier weight. It may offer a new treatment option by targeting the gut-brain connection.
This trial studies how your gut and brain communicate in people with anorexia nervosa. It may help researchers understand symptoms and find better ways to measure or treat the condition.
