Q. What could be the cause of weight loss and depression?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query and understood your concern.

Your son is having depression problems. The medicines used to treat depression might have caused him to gain weight, along with a sedentary lifestyle with no physical activity. I advise psychotherapy for him. Check his thyroid hormones to check his metabolism rate. Prepare a special menu for him and combine healthy foods with his preferred foods at first. I also suggest you consult a specialist doctor.

I hope this has helped you.

Thanks and regards.

Same symptoms doesn’t mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
