Hello,
I have gone carefully through your concern.
Yes, hypothyroidism can cause weight gain.
To confirm/ rule it out you need to check;
- TSH, Ft4 level.
If they result to be within the normal ranges than the sedentary life should be the cause.
Try to do some physical activity and perhaps a dietitian may be helpful to guide you to a diet.
Will be a pleasure to answer further questions.
Kind regards,
Dr.Mirjeta
