Dr. Mohit Bhandari · Accepted Answer

You should first consult an endocrinologist to rule out hormonal or metabolic causes of weight gain. If no medical issue is found, then meeting a bariatric surgeon is advisable. Treatment options include supervised lifestyle programs, weight-loss medications, and in severe cases, bariatric surgery. The best choice depends on your overall health and BMI.
