General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I would suggest you get further checked. You should get checked for glucose levels and diabetes. Also, you should check your thyroid hormone levels. Hypothyroidism may be a cause of excessive weight gain.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
