I am 29 years old male, 5 ft '9, with an average weight of 123 to130 on good days. My slender frame and high metabolism I definitely received from my parents. My mother having a very petite small frame and my father being very tall and skinny and always on the thinner side helped my problems. (Not too mention I developed my body through gymnastics and ballet and swimming in adolescence along with about two years battling a hard drug addiction around 15/16yo - I feel it was a long lasting effect on my physical development in some aspects). I've tried everything! Increasing meals and higher protein, higher carbs, shakes, strength training, steroids (best resulted no side affects for me), marinol (since I'm not in the right states) to just start. I eat like a trash compared too...

ectoplan side effect ## This company does not have a website, so finding information on their products is difficult. From what I can discover, however, it is nothing more than a vitamin supplement, so it is not actually proven to do anything or help with anything. This also means that the side effects have not been studied. From what I can gather, it appears to contain: Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin B-1, Vitamin B-2, Niacin, Vitamin B-6, Vitamin B-12, Pantothenic Acid, Calcium, Iron, Manganese, and Beef Liver The best way to gain weight is under a doctor's supervision, following a proper diet. Have you consulted a doctor?

What can I do to prevent weight gain while using Lexamil? I am also taking birth control which adds to the possibility of gaining weight. ## Lexamil contains the active ingredient Escitalopram, which is an SSRI antidepressant and it isn't known to cause significant weight gain. Compared to taking an oral contraceptive, you are more liable to gain weight from the birth control, rather than the Lexamil. However, you can help keep any changes, from either medication, under control by watching your diet to make sure you aren't eating far more than you should, stick with lower fat foods and get plenty of exercise. Have you spoken to your doctor about your concerns? They will also be able to advise of ideas that may be useful to you.

Hello my names Nathaniel, I'm 17 weighing 123 at 6'1, I'm going into national guard and I've tried everything, weigh protein, but never tried pills or any other substance, I eat right and everything just I can't gain no weight. I need to weigh 144 before I can sign those papers. Please tell me what I can do. ## Hi Nathaniel, Based on your description it does sound like you may be below the average weight for someone of your stature. Although I'm not completely familiar with a specific type of weight-gaining drug, there are options out there that can help stimulate your appetite significantly, such as cannabis. However, some people are just naturally skinny due to their genetic makeup and metabolism, so it's possible that simply increasing your caloric intake ...

Can astymin forte capsules make one grow fat/big? ## Atymin is a nutrition supplement made up of essential amino acids. Our bodies do need certain amounts of them, for proper health. However, the only way they should make someone gain weight is if they are deficient in them and that has caused them to suffer weight loss. And, even in such cases, it would not cause severe weight gain. Are there any questions or comments? ## When to eat astymin forte, after or before dinner? ## I have noticed rapid weight gain in just one month after taking astymin multivitamins. Could it be the cause? ## I just want to start using astymin now to gain weight, and I don't know how effective it is. Can I buy the syrup or capsules, and how many bottles can someone take to start gaining weight? Thanks. ##...

I am on 300mg of Seroquel, & 4mg of Xanax per day since my return from Afghanistan for PTSD, anxiety attacks, bipolar, and agoraphobia. I also take Morphine, Soma & 300mg of Gabapentin for pain. I broke a few vertebrae & was also shot. I maintained my weight since I was a teen, but since the medication I've gained 30lbs & I do the same workout since I was 15 & no matter what I do can't lose weight. Can the Seroquel be causing this? Or do you think it's a combination of what I take??? Please help. I've tried to increase my workouts along with every diet that's proven by a reputable source & maybe lose 5lbs, within a week it's back. ## Yes, it is possible that you are gaining weight as a result of the Seroquel. The Medline Plus article state...

Why am I gaining weight every day by taking Movantic (even if I eat just a little or nothing)? ## I have also gained about 10lbs since starting movantik.. ## Have been taking Movantik since 2016. I have gained 40 pounds and have become prediabetic even though I am on a strict diet ## Hello Connie, According to the National Institute of Health during their case study less than 1% of the patients who were given the pill showed symptoms of weight gain and thus they determined that this is not an adverse effect caused by the medicine. This does not mean that you are not being effected by the weight gain, it may simply means that it not common and that if proven to be the cause you would be among the very rare cases. If you are concerned that you are gaining weight despite doing your best to...

Hi. I am 23 years old, height 5'6 and weight is 50kg. I want to increase my weight. I eat a normal diet, but I am not gaining weight. Please suggest me some effective pills or supplements. I am working a night shift. I want to put on more weight but not too much. Please do reply. ## There are many medications and natural herbs that promote appetite. Ask your Dr. about them. This isn't the place to come to asking about drugs because we don't write them. A MD does. An MD also knows (generally) which medications will help. But, remember if you are taking any appetite suppressant such as a stimulant then of course other drugs are not the answer. If you take a stimulant for a legitimate medical need then you've probably been on it awhile. The appetite suppression just like th...

You may also experience nausea, stomach pain, diarrhea, and flatulence. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hi I'm 17going on 18 and I have been trying to gain weight for a while but nothing really works. I weigh 120lbs and I'm 5'7, I've been told my weight is healthy but I look really skinny. I would like to know what kind if pill I can take to gain weight. My goal is to reach 130lbs ## Hi Jessica, Based on your description it does sound like you're at a healthy weight. Although I'm not completely familiar with a specific type of weight-gaining drug (other than those which increase your appetite), if your intent is to only put on 10lbs, you could simply increase your caloric intake and do some strength/weight training exercises each day to help put on a bit of muscle weight (as opposed to fat or water weight). Have you ever tried getting in touch with a dietician or n...

You mentioned that you're eating healthy, but I would just add that a healthy diet is only one crucial ingredient in a successful weight loss regimen. I hope you have managed to m...

I was just prescribed Citalopram by my doctor and I'm afraid of gaining weight while on this - has anyone else noticed weight gain? ## It is quite common. I gained over 60 pounds while on 20mg of citalopram for 1 year and 4 months. The weight gain is a nightmare. EQ ## Hello, Amanda! How are you? Yes, Citalopram has been known to cause weight gain as a side effect in some people that take it, however, it has also been known to cause weight loss in some patients, so they only way to know how it will affect you is by trying it. More common side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, amnesia, and abnormal gait, according to FDA reports. Ref: Medline Plus Citalopram Did you talk to your doctor about this? There may be other medications you can try.

recently I was affected by jaundice and I lost a couple of weights coz I was only supposed to take bread, kanji or resk. now,m coming to a normal state and my question is... can I take strength plus after my jaundice gets completely cured.....will it helps to gain weight??? ## Hello, Citizen! How are you? Once it's cleared up, you'll most likely regain the weight in a short period of time, without using anything for assistance, your body just needs to be healthy, first. Thus, it would most likely be best to wait a bit, let the jaundice clear up and see whether or not you're gaining it back a few weeks after that. Is there anything else I can help with? ## hello verwon bro I was not that much bulky earlier(before jaundice)....just a normal or can be called as bit thin....but,...

I have my first fitness bikini competiton in 2 weeks. My obgyn would like me to start on lo loestrin starting today because of severe severe cramps that need to be dealt with. However, I'm nervous that I could gain weight right before my competition after months and months of strict dieting and 2 a day workouts. The obgyn said that I would not start my period in 2 weeks (I'm scheduled to start the day of my completion) which would be great considering how severe my cramps are. Anyone experience little to no weight gain on lo loestrin? I've seen many people post that they have long term but just was wondering what to expect within first 2 weeks?? Thanks so much in advance :) ## I have eating disorders so I was worried about gaining weight too, but I never gained weight on it!...
