Sudden increase in weight
Hi. I am currently 24 years old. But when I was 7 years old, I was in the normal range of weight. As soon as I turned 8, my weight suddenly increased and I became overweight along with insulin resistance which caused acanthosis nigricans. Can someone tell me why there was such a sudden increase in weight?
