You might want to check out this book. It's all about figure skating, gymnastics, and the tough requirements to stay competitive that lead to skipping menstruation and stunting one's growth.

It's a pretty common problem with competitive gymnastics and figure-skating. The coaches go as far as delaying puberty and altering diets to reduce the development of breast tissue, which would make them top-heavy. The coaches make bank, but the girls end up pretty useless once they can't perform any more.
