Hello doctor,
My wife is 48 years, height 5 feet 12 inches. Her weight range is 88 to 92 lbs since her age of 20 years. She wants to gain weight. How to gain? She sometimes feels weakness.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Yes, I can understand that weight gain can be difficult for some people - but surely it is possible. Your wife needs to add at least 13 to 15 lbs weight. You need to eat the food that you like as this will help you eat more than usual. So, you need to take the kind of food that you like for example spicy food, veg or non-veg diet, etc. The calorie intake has to be higher than what you regularly take - this also means that you need to take greater quantity of food. You need to make a list of foodstuffs that you like and stick it on your refrigerator. For example, bananas, apples, peanuts, milk, chocolates, chips, french fries, ice-cream, almonds. Also, make a list of items for lunch and dinner that you like and cook them frequently. I suggest the below steps:
I hope this helps.
Thank you.
Hello doctor,

Kindly check.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I have reviewed the reports (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). The report is fine, only the hemoglobin level is low. I suggest you repeat CBC (complete blood picture) and follow up after a month.
Thank you.
