Hi,

I am so sorry to hear about these difficulties gaining weight. I will suggest that you follow through and get a doctor's consult. Disease states like hyperthyroidism may cause symptoms of weight loss. It would be good for you to get a proper physical examination and all possible causes of weight loss evaluated so as to provide a helpful treatment plan to you. Eat healthy and exercise regularly too help build the muscles and put on weight. I would not recommend any tablets for weight gain purposes. The benefits are outmatched by the consequences.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
