Hello,

The Infasoy is usually not causing the explained weight gain if given in properly prescribed dosage guidelines. As there is breast issue with weight gain as well, underlying hormone imbalance is must to be considered with further in depth evaluation via immunologist specialist to rule out congenital disorders of metabolism or else.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
