What Causes The Inability To Lose Weight Despite Diet And Exercise?

Hi I m on 30mg of metermine and into my second month of taking it. I have a healthy diet and exercise regularly. I have not lost any weight and am wondering why. I am 105kgs and have maintained this weight for over a year regardless of my healthy eating and exercise.

Hi,

Some medical conditions like diabetes, thyroid problem or (in ladies) menstrual irregularity due to PCOD can cause increase in weight. Please consult your doctor for examination / investigations, to find or exclude these conditions followed by specific treatment.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
