What Causes Excessive Weight Gain And Fatigue?

Hi over the past couple of months I have been gaining wait and I am exhausted all the time. Went to the doctor and he told me that he thinks that I am having problems with my thyroid. I eat right drink plenty of water but cannot explain the wait gain and the tiredness all the time.

Hi,

Thyroid problems should be ruled out first because hypothyroidism causes such symptoms. After that, other causes are to be looked at.

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

Dr. Bhadresh Lakhani
