Hi,
Your problem with scantier bleeding periods with weight gain can be due to to low thyroid hormones or PCOD.
Diagnosis would be by thyroid function tests(blood)& USG scanning of pelvis. Cause-specific treatment would help you.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
