Trying To Gain Weight, No Improvement With Taking Fatty Foods, Dietary Changes. Suggestion?

Hello doctor, I am 25 years old female, weighing 45 kg and height 5.2. I am working as a medical transcriptionist, married and have a 3 year old son. I am not able to increase my weight for a long time. I have tried many things like taking large servings of food, fatty foods, sleeping at day time, but nothing helps me. Can you give me a suggestion about this. Waiting for your reply.

Hello,

If these things have not helped then, I think you should consider a clinical evaluation.Sometimes health issues like hormonal imbalance, thyroid issues and chronic infections may be cause of low body weight.

So consider seeing doctor for primary clinical evaluation.
