Detailed Answer:
Hello, greetings!
Thanks for posing your query on hcm.
I have gone through your report.
The culprit of your weight gain seems to be hypothyroidism( underactive thyroid).
You need to start on thyroxine tablets as well as Vitamin D3 tablet.
Thyroid tablets' dosage depends on your body weight. I would recommend you to visit an endocrinologist for the same.
