See a doctor.: This is more complex than just increasing calories. Please see a doctor to rule out any medical conditions causing your weight to be low. You may have a high metabolism. Your BMI---relation between height and weight should be known too. I am assuming you are not on any calorie deprived diet, because that has to be addressed too. It is hard to solve this issue with just this message. Good luck.
