Invisible Eating Disorders in Women: A Clinical Perspective on Underdiagnosis and Weight Bias in ICAMP 2027

The 2nd Edition of International Conference on Addiction Medicine, Mental Health and Psychiatry (ICAMP 2027) brings together global experts to discuss emerging challenges in addiction, psychiatry, psychology, and mental health.

Among the important scientific presentations is a thought-provoking session by Dr. Eva Ein-Eli, Independent Researcher, France.

🎀 Presenter: Dr. Eva Ein-Eli
πŸ“ Country: France
πŸ“Œ Presentation Title: Invisible eating disorders in normal-weight and higher-weight women: A clinical field perspective on underdiagnosis and weight bias

Key Insights from the Presentation

Eating disorders are often incorrectly associated only with low body weight. This perception can make eating disorders in normal-weight and higher-weight women less visible in both clinical practice and public understanding.

Dr. Eva Ein-Eli's presentation examines:

πŸ”Ή The underdiagnosis of eating disorders among normal-weight and higher-weight women
πŸ”Ή Binge Eating Disorder, atypical anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and OSFED
πŸ”Ή The impact of weight stigma and diagnostic bias
πŸ”Ή Limitations of BMI-centered assessment
πŸ”Ή Psychological factors including emotion regulation, trauma-related coping, and self-worth
πŸ”Ή The importance of recognizing behavioral symptoms and psychological suffering
πŸ”Ή The need for more equitable access to eating-disorder diagnosis and treatment

The presentation highlights the importance of moving from an appearance- and weight-centered approach toward a suffering-centered clinical model that recognizes eating disorders across different body sizes.
