Hello,

You have not mentioned what shots you took for allergy treatment by the BAMS doctor you had been consulting.

Some medicines do cause hirsutism & weight gain like Danazol, Anabolic steroids, Glucocorticoids, cyclosporin, minoxidil, phenytoin, etc.

Since you are presently experiencing side effects of allergy shots you have taken, you are suggested to get clinically examined by an Allergist. Get all the required tests done, get treated at the earliest.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Nupur K, General & Family Physician
