Hmmm....: Unexpected weight gain can be checked by one's primary care doctor. Possibly, there is a hormonal problem such as a thyroid hormone imbalance, or the presence of pregnancy hormones. One can check a home urine pregnancy test to see if there is a baby inside, if there has been sexual activity.
