Hi
Lamotrigene is less likely to cause weight gain and your symptoms are mainly due to menopause.
Weight gain occurs before and during menopause partly because of a drop in estrogen levels. Low-quality sleep and regular, age-related reductions in metabolism and muscle tone can also contribute to this weight gain. The weight tends to develop in the abdomen.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
