Why female BB competitors will fade away???

Above is 1 hour radio program, so if you're not interested, please disregard my post.  But it was really funny to me.

They talk as if sugar is the only problem for breaking the hormone balance for female bodybuilders and sugar binging is the reason many of them will not come back again.

But wait a minute. To be in bodybuilding competition, women have to lose body fat up to 11% or even less for better muscle definition, at the price of losing breasts and periods.

For breasts, you can implant later but not periods.

So the question is, how to regain periods regularly back to normal after severe fat loss, not hormone balance or sugar crave.

All in all, female bodybuilding competition is a height of madness to me. It's only a personal choice but losing woman-ness is a cost they must understand.

I have done research in past 6 months and have come to conclusion not to participate in any female bber competition due to this.
It's different for men but you have your decision to make too.

Anyway, do you know why female BB competitors will fade away???

I said FF BB competitors will fade away. Not female BB. In fact many new girls appear but fade away after competition due to extreme fat loss and health damage.

Female bodybuilding is just another healthy sport. But female bodybuilding COMPETITION is a madness at current status.

Men's BB competition is at awful stage too, yes. Most of BBers are plagued with steroid and growth hormones.
But losing body fat till 3-7% for better muscle definition is still possible for many men without heath issue.

For women, we need to be at least less than 13% for clear muscle definition to be at competition level.
But losing BF less than 13% for women, is losing regular period, breast and destroying hormone system, to all most any woman.

I know men's BB competition is harsh. But women's BB competition brings worse health issues.

I guess women's BB competition is here to stay and will never go away, only poor female bodybuilders fade away from stage with hormone imbalance and plastic boobs.

I had secondary amenorrhea for almost two years due to extremely low body fat levels and once I gained weight my period came back and has been regular ever since (+ my overall physical health has also been fine).
One of the biggest problems with amenorrhea is the associated loss of bone density which I addressed by taking calcium and vitamin D, and weight bearing exercise is great at reducing the risks of osteoporosis so bb's are already ahead in that regard.
To be honest, losing your period for month or two a year doesn't strike me as being hugely problematic- it's not even classed as secondary amenorrhea unless the loss of periods lasts for more than 3 months.
While I agree that competitive body building can lead to problems (imo it's a form of orthorexia) plenty of women have their pro cards and compete regularly but for novices it's extremely time consuming and difficult for your average person to continue for more than a few seasons, if that.
As long as people are making an educated decision I don't see what the problem is
