I am 72.4 kg. I should be between 50-54kg for my height of 162 cm and ovarian health. I have yo yo dieted and lost and gained lost and gained some more. It's beyond frustrating.

Are there any doctors who would agree for me to have a gastric sleeve or suitable alternative? I don't have an eating disorder and a psychological test will attest to that.
