Unprecedented weight loss post delivery

2019-12-04 03:04:11
From 5 months post delivery, I have been noticing an unprecedented weight loss. I was 65 kgs prior to delivery, my pre pregnancy weight being 50kgs. Currently I hover between 42-43kgs. Had mild thyroid function issues during pregnancy, however the same was absent in the post pregnancy tests. Could emotional stress be a contributor? Going through a rough patch in my personal life.

Yes quite possible. Stress can lead to weight loss. Also get your thyroid levels checked. See a local doctor or counsellor if you have issues in your personal life.
