Weight gain is often hormonal, not a willpower problem.
Insulin resistance, thyroid disorders and PCOS all make weight harder to lose and easier to regain. A doctor can tell you which of them applies to you.
- Consultation with an specialist doctor, not a counsellor
- Lab tests are reviewed and history evaluated

Four reasons the weight is not shifting
Each of these changes how weight is treated, and none of them respond to eating less alone.
Insulin resistance
Your body stores fat readily and releases it slowly. Eating less alone works against the biology rather than with it.
Thyroid disorders
An underactive thyroid slows metabolism measurably. It is diagnosed with a blood test, not with willpower.
PCOS
Affects a large share of Indian women of reproductive age and makes weight both harder to lose and quicker to return.
Fatty liver
Often silent until it shows up on a scan. It travels with weight gain and improves as weight comes down.
Doctor-led care against everything else you have tried
Six questions. Then your numbers.
Your answers go to the doctor before the call.
How old are you?
Treatment options change with age.
What is your sex?
Hormonal drivers differ, so this changes what the doctor checks.
Your height and weight
Used to calculate your BMI.
Where do you want to get to?
A number you would be happy with, not a perfect one.
Has a doctor mentioned any of these?
Pick everything that applies. Choose the last option if none do.
What is pushing you to act now?
Pick everything that applies.
Here is where you stand.
Consult fee is adjusted against your program if you enrol within 7 days.
Questions worth asking
Will I be prescribed medication?
Only if the doctor judges it appropriate for you. Many people are told it is not, and are given a plan that does not involve medication at all.
Why does BMI use 23 and 25 here?
Indian populations show metabolic risk at a lower BMI than European ones, so the thresholds used in Indian practice are lower than the familiar 25 and 30.
What happens after I pay?
You get a WhatsApp confirmation with a slot within 24 hours. Your quiz answers reach the doctor before the call, so the time is spent on you rather than on questions you have already answered.
Do I get the fee back?
It is adjusted against your program fee if you enrol within 7 days of the consult.
