I'm wondering if taking ciplactin and decdan could help me gain weight. I've been stuck at 56 kg for the last couple of years and it's getting frustrating. Are there specific foods I should be eating to help increase my weight?
get some hormonal tests done, sometimes due to hormonal problems, the weight doesn't increase. have high protein diet. then hit the gym. that way you will gradually increase weight in a controlled manner and your weight will not be because of fat.
