I would say yes because Ben grows up to lose weight and that is a source of contention and fear for him with Pennywise, that he will always be the fact kid. This doesn’t fit the typical stereotype of body dysmorphia, but his shame and being shamed by pennywise may cause issues for some.

Ep 90 deals pretty heavily with people who hate their bodies and are exercising obsessively to change them, as well as turning that theme up in body-horror contexts. A few other episodes dip into the same theme for a few lines

Yes Terry has a lot of body dysmorphia due to being fat before the show took place. He is obsessed with maintaining his perfect body and reacts very strongly to any sort of fat joke.

At one point his wife is concerned with losing baby weight causing Terry, Amy and Gina to go on a comically restrictive diet in solidarity.

This is much of what drives the Elric brothers to get their bodies back for the entire anime, after one losing an arm and leg, and the other losing his whole body — that his soul was attached to a suit of armor. Comparing to real life, clearly those who are severely injured or amputated have trouble accepting their bodies.

Not gender or fat related body dysmorphia, a character who is supposed to be the "hot and young" character gets old and experiences a lot of distress about it saying things like "I'm ugly" and "don't look at me" things like this. These scenes are brief as most of the time she is off scene/off camera (presumably because she feels that her acute aging is making her ugly)

There is some body horror in some scenes throughout. As for BD it’s not super explicit but the main character eats very little and is very worried over eating one piece of cake, later it is mentioned that she has lost weight. She throws up throughout the film but it’s probably more due to stress than an ED though it could still be triggering.
