General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Thank you for posting your question in HCM.

What is your height? Please calculate your BMI using this formula

BMI= weight in kg/ height in meters square

If your BMI is between 18.5 to 24.9, then you have nothing to worry about even if you are thin. If it is lower than the normal BMI then weight gain is adviced however through natural means not through injections which is not advisable. Please be reassured that a nutritious diet is all you need. It is more important for you to be healthy than to appear a certain way for cosmetic reasons.

Hope you have found this useful.
