For instance, pregnant women often get their appetite back after several weeks and need no further treatment. Those with diabetes need lifelong monitoring and treatment. Those with cancer may die if treatment doesn't cure the cancer. The person's weight and nutritional status may be monitored. Affected people can report any change in appetite or response from treatment to the healthcare provider.
Further monitoring is related to the underlying condition.
