Why Can't I Gain Weight Despite Eating?
I'm very skinny. I eat a lot but still I don't gain any weight
General Physician
Answered on 23rd May '24
One potential reason is that you have a fast metabolism. Your body burns through calories very quickly, which can make it difficult for some people to gain weight. Other potential causes may include hyperthyroidism or problems with malabsorption. You should consult with a dietitian or nutritionist who will assist in creating a meal plan that helps increase your calorie intake healthily.

I have hyperthyroidism and my tsh value is at 15.i want medicine recommendation for it
Female | 21
Hyperthyroidism is when the thyroid gland makes too much thyroid hormone. It can cause symptoms such as weight loss, sweating, and feeling nervous. A TSH value of 15 is considered high, which indicates an underactive thyroid. Levothyroxine could be prescribed to correct this by balancing out your levels of thyroid hormones. Be sure to follow your doctor’s advice.

I have a deficiency in vitamin D it is 6 what do you recommend for me especially the dose
Female | 10
Your Vitamin D level of 6 is quite low, and it's important to address this. Usually, doctors recommend a high dose of Vitamin D supplements, often around 50,000 IU once a week for a few months, followed by a maintenance dose. However, it’s best to consult an endocrinologist for the right dosage and treatment plan for your specific needs.

I had a general check up today TSH - 0.11 T4 - 16.60 T3 - 4.32 what does this indicate?
Female | 23
Your test results showed a low TSH level. Your T4 and T3 were high. This means your thyroid is overactive. It's called hyperthyroidism. You may lose weight, feel jittery, sweat more. It can happen due to autoimmune issues or thyroid nodules. Options are medication or radioactive iodine treatment in some cases. You can also consult an endocrinologist.

Female | 44
If you do not take care of diabetes, you may lose weight. Your pee might also smell bad. This happens when your body cannot use sugar right. It starts using fat and muscle for energy instead. This causes weight loss. To fix this, you must control your diabetes. Eat healthy foods, exercise, and take medicine as told. This will help keep your blood sugar levels normal.

Mera tsh level 8.94 hai to plz bataye ki mai 25 mcg tablet lo
Female | 26
When TSH is 8.94, the thyroid doesn't function correctly. You might feel be exhausted, gain extra weight or experience chilly sensations. This happens because of reasons that affect the thyroid gland's performance. A 25 mcg tablet may assist, but consulting a doctor before starting any medication is wise.

My metabolism has been messed up since taking invega sustenna where i gain a kilo if i eat 100 calories over 1000 calories. i used to be able to eat whatever i wanted well over 2000 calories and flunctuate and go over certain calorie amounts and not gain weight. however after taking invega sustenna 100 mg for 10 months my metabolism has become like this. i discontinued the medicine 2 months ago and my metabolism is still not back to normal. how long will it take for it to go back to normal ?
Female | 27
In some cases, medicine can actually change the way our body burns calories, and hence the weight changes. The metabolism process might be slow to return to normal for a few months after the cessation of the drug. Eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly to help things get back on track.

Hi I have a problem.hormone imbalance
Female | 37
Hormone imbalance can cause tiredness, weight changes, irregular periods, and mood swings. It happens when hormones in your body aren't balanced. Stress, poor diet, or medical conditions can make hormones imbalanced. To fix hormones, eat healthy foods, reduce stress, and exercise regularly. Sometimes, hormone therapy from a doctor helps balance hormones.

How to increase my hormone level
Male | 18
If your hormone levels are not where you would like them to be, this could lead to feelings of fatigue as well as irritability. A lack of sufficient rest, stress, or an improper diet are all potential causes behind having low hormonal amounts within the body. To create higher hormone amounts within the body: reduce stress through relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises; aim for at least 8 hours of sleep each night; eat foods that are high in healthy fats like avocados and nuts while also being good sources of protein.

You can add fish and eggs to your meals more often, spend time outside, or take supplements with this vitamin to increase its level in the body. You should consult your healthcare provider for more information.

When I wake up in the morning and I haven't even drank, I still pee a lot. comes once but Its range is more and after that I sleep and then I go to the washroom, still I come out with a lot of urine. Its range is more without water. Why is this so? I neither have diabetes nor UTI infection Am unmarried
Female | 22
Human beings tend to urinate more in the morning than in the evening after sleeping for a long period. This is because our kidneys expel more of the blood impurities overnight. Therefore, we should expect to pee more after we wake up. In the absence of other symptoms like pain or unusual color, it is usually normal.

A prolonged white discharge accompanied by severe fatigue can be concerning. High TSH levels may indicate that your thyroid isn't functioning properly, which could be causing these symptoms. Hormonal imbalances can lead to such symptoms and unusual discharge. It's important to discuss these results with an endocrinologist for a thorough examination and appropriate treatment.

Female | 27
If the 5000 HCG isn't working well for you, it's best to bring to your doctor's attention for a dosage adjustment. The 1000 HCG injection plus 12 hours is not likely to work and may even cause side effects. The resulting signs can be hormone disturbances and pregnancy problems. The doctor will indicate the correct dosage to help you feel better.

I have noticed neck darkness, pimples on your face, and excess underarm fat and darkening. I had plantar facilities and breast abscess and bartholin cyst in past history.
Female | 25
Many symptoms are bothering you. Inflammation in the body causing joint pain may be related to PCOS and vitamin deficiencies. Hormonal imbalances could be one reason why your neck has become darker along with the skin underarms. A good way to reduce these signs is to eat balanced meals regularly, exercise often, and manage stress properly. If necessary, you should also take care of yourself more than anything else by seeking help from a medical professional.

I am 18 year old i suffer from weight gain and full of vitamin deficiencies
Female | 18
What happens when one lacks certain nutrients is that they might feel fatigued easily, become weak, or even lose their hair among other things. One way through which this trend can be reversed would involve taking fruits and vegetables in plenty to raise vitamin levels while at the same time making sure that you don’t gain excess weight. Another method would be including foods like leafy greens; and citrus fruits within your meals

Hello sir, myself Ranjit Yadav and my age is 19 years height growth was stop from 2yrs i was at same height 5.0 and i want increase my height, Someone suggested me to take height growth hormone (hgh) so this my question is that good to take and from where i get ?
Male | 19
It is expected that the height growth will stop changing around age 16-18. Growth hormones are unsafe to take without the doctor's advice. Height is the consequence of genes. Healthy nourishment, sufficient sleep, and physical activity can support you to grow to your highest potential. If you have any concerns, it is most appropriate to consult with a doctor who can provide you with the right advice.
