Hi, Age 26 & weight 40 kgs is very less, first we need rule out any underlining cause :- do you have normal appetite or don't feel like eating most of time, do you have habit of drinking ,smoking, any history of recreational drug abuse (marijuana or any thing like this) or any habit such as masturbation (addiction) more than normal, if any of above mentioned habit, then 1st and foremost advise will be avoid doing such things, you need to change your life style. Eat healthy diet [lot of protein diet, eat fresh fruits, take milk products ],exercise on daily basis, give time of 6-8 months to let your body recover and then only you can gain weight. Get a detailed blood investigation done and review reports with me. For any more questions you can ask me.
