Changes in food and exercise are often the first reasons for weight gain. Secondarily, an endocrine imbalance involving the thyroid, adrenal and/or reproductive hormones may be responsible for weight gain. If the weight gain involves water retention, perhaps there could be an electrolyte imbalance involving kidney function. Mental/emotional stressors and imbalances in other organ systems could also contribute to weight gain. It is important to consult a trained health care practitioner who can take an appropriate history, conduct an exam, and determine the proper tests in order to identify the cause.
