Suggest Remedies For Weight Gain Despite A Good Diet Accompanied With Exercise
My 20 year old daughter has symptoms of low sugar, chronic fatigue and tremendous weight gain (belly) 40+ lbs in less than three years, even with exercise and eating a good diet. Dr says tests do not reveal anything even though she was previously on armour thyroid. Concerned that she is continuing to gain weight and becoming more lethargic. Diagnosed with Fibro at age 17.

Hello,
She needs to recheck thyroid hormone levels. Her thyroid most probably is very low and she needs to increase thyroid armour dosage.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
