Weight doesn't Gain.

2017-05-26 09:29:15
My weight is constantly below the healthy BMI range, and my BMI is around 16. I am 19 years old. Should I test myself for some diseases in my body, since whenever I gain weight it reduces back to the previous one after a couple of weeks. If yes, then what all tests should I perform? If no, then why does it happen. Kindly also give tips to gain weight while eating a vegetarian diet.
