When under 17? At 16? Or sometimes under 17 percent? Thats kind of vague.

Men that have bodyfat percentages over 10 percent run a higher risk of diabetes . . . Greater than 9 anyway lol.

Amenorrhoea is sometimes triggered in women by low body fat and does not happen to all women. The article above states that "often the main cause is insufficient calorie intake, a low body fat percentage (under 17%), stress, or a heavy training schedule without sufficient rest."
