Ovarian hormone influences on general food intake have been studied in animals for 60+ years. Yet, extensions of these data to key eating disorder symptoms in humans (e.g., binge eating (BE)) have only recently occurred. In this article, we summarize findings from studies examining the effects of ovarian hormones on BE. Findings suggest ovarian hormones contribute to BE in animals and humans, although studies are few in number, and effects are not present in all women or all animals exposed to high-risk hormonal milieus. Differences in susceptibility may be due to gene x hormone interactions that can explain why some, but not all, women/females develop BE in the presence of risky hormonal environments.

卵巢激素和成年期暴饮暴食：女性风险个体差异的研究结果和影响总结。


60 多年来，人们一直在动物身上研究卵巢激素对一般食物摄入量的影响。然而，最近才将这些数据扩展到人类关键饮食失调症状（例如暴食（BE））。在本文中，我们总结了卵巢激素对 BE 影响的研究结果。研究结果表明，卵巢激素会导致动物和人类的BE，尽管研究数量很少，而且并非所有暴露于高风险激素环境的女性或所有动物都会产生影响。易感性的差异可能是由于基因与激素的相互作用造成的，这可以解释为什么一些（但不是全部）妇女/女性在存在危险的激素环境时会患上 BE。
