Muscle dysmorphia is a subtype of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) characterized by a preoccupation with the idea that one's body is not sufficiently muscular, lean, or attractive. This preoccupation causes significant distress and can lead to the individual engaging in compulsive exercise and extreme dieting behaviors in an attempt to achieve their ideal body.

Cognitive dysmorphic disorder is not a recognized diagnosis.
