Suggest Treatment For Bloating And Weight Gain Despite Exercise And Dietary Restrictions
Hello. I take 75mg levothyroxine daily. No problems with that. But I get very bloated all the time. I have given up all dairy exact kefir thick yoghurt that I make myself. I only also eat homemade sourdough bread. I exercise for an HR in the gym daily, and I am not a big eater, as I just get bloated with whatever I eat. I am vegaterain by the way! But recently I have started putting on weight, over and above my bloating weight. It upsets me, all the excersise, and not being able to eat anything without consequences, and I am putting on weight!

Hi,
Your problem is due low thyroid hormone. Please get your dose revised by an endocrinologist, in light of your recent thyroid function test report. Proper dose of thyroid supplement would definitely help you.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
