My Daughter Is Not Eating Anything.Reason?

My 16 year old daughter has no appetite and doesnt feel hungry, she can go all day and never want food. She is lethargic and doesnt drink much either. She is 5 2 and only weighs 5stone 13pounds!!! Both she and I are concerned. She also says that the smell of food makes her nauseaus and then she cant face eating. Should i take her to the doctors.

HI
Well come to HCM
Such phase id very common in this age particularly in female and this is nothing to worry because soon this would be over, do not force her to eat otherwise she would more refuse the food, just take it easy, hope this helps.
