Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for sharing your concerns,
I can understand your worry about your weight gain, as you have gained 5kg in last 6 months.
This is good that you do not have any thyroid issues.
I would like to know following before answering in detail:
1) What is your height and weight at present?
2) Please give details about headache like location, severity, and associated symptoms like nausea, vomiting and relieving factor (Any medicine).
3) What do you mean by hair fall is bad?
4) Do you go for any type of exercise or walking?
5) Is there any family history of diabetes?
6) Can you approximate idea of calories consumed every day.
It is possible that in diet excess calories are there and your physical activity is reduced which causes gain in weight.
Please provide above details then I will be able to answer in detail.
I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest.
With Regards.
