Difficulty losing weight despite diet and exercise in someone on thyroid medication is very common and usually has a specific reason â either the thyroid isn't optimally controlled (TSH not in the ideal range), there is underlying insulin resistance, or hormonal changes around the 40s are making fat storage more efficient. At 42, perimenopause can also begin to contribute, making weight loss significantly harder. Generic diet and exercise advice often doesn't work when there's an underlying metabolic cause.
Next Steps
Get a TSH check to confirm your thyroid is well-controlled, along with fasting insulin, HbA1c, and Vitamin D levels. These results will guide whether you need medication adjustment, insulin-sensitizing treatment, or a structured metabolic diet plan. Please consult me directly on Practo for a detailed evaluation.

It may be due to conditions such as PCOD, Vitamin D deficiency, iron deficiency, or other underlying causes affecting weight management. You should visit our clinic, where Dr. Jyoti Arora, an Ayurvedic physician, will evaluate your condition in detail. Ayurvedic treatment may help in managing your symptoms depending on the underlying cause. If required, appropriate investigations will be advised, and based on the findings, suitable medications will be prescribed. You will also be counseled regarding diet and exercise for better weight management.
