Does Hyperthyroidism Cause Weight Gain?
I have just been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, and I am concerned about weight gain. I have already gain stone in 7 months prior to diagnosis due to my insane appetite, but now I feel the appetite is under control. From all I have read, it appears I am going to gain more weight throughout the treatment. Is this true? What can I do?

In my opinion hyperthyroidism can cause weight gain if you develop thyroid resistance , I recommend you check for thyroid resistance
