The DSM-5 dropped the criterion of amenorrhea (lack of menstrual period) as a diagnostic criterion for anorexia nervosa, as it is not always present in all individuals with the disorder, particularly in males and premenarcheal females. The other criteria (extreme fear of gaining weight, undue influence of body weight on self-evaluation, and restriction of energy intake leading to significantly low body weight) were retained. Purging is a criterion for bulimia nervosa, not anorexia nervosa.
