dear Mr. XXX

Donot worry about gaining weight, if your active and healthy that is a gift for you.
your BMI is fine and you need to gain another 5 kgs for your height.all the medications for weight gain mainly contain nutritional supplements, that you can take by your diet only. check your thyroid status once, if it is not normal consult any good physician

thank you
