Now I noticed I've gained 4kgs weight and aaj kal mujhay bhook bhi bohat lag rahi hai. Is it because of b12 supplements? Kya b12 supplements laynay say weight gain hota hai?

Nothing to do with Vit B12. Manage weight by diet & exercise.

Vit. B12 does not increases body weight.
How ever Vit B 12 deficiency reduces appetite. After taking B12 supplements your appetite has improved and by taking extra diet you gained weight. So take moderate amount of died and increase physical activity to over come weight gain.
