You're body is not what this site considers "hardware". With that said, there's plenty of other sites to check out. You working on mass? tone? losing weight? What is your workout routine?

This is not the place for this kind of info, but putting on muscle is as much about calorie intake as it is protein and workout routine. You need roughly 3000 kcal/day depending on weight. Also remember results are never immediately obvious, as it is such a gradual change.

Apart from eggs you can try boiled Chicken breasts.
half kg/day will help you gain some weight.
you will also need to do weights training to turn it into mass.
only eating wont help.

Eat big to get big. As for your protein intake, 4 eggs a day isn't bad, although it sounds a little boring. You could mix it up by eating steak, fish, chicken, etc. Try your google-fu and find out how much you need.

You won't get a good answer on this forum, but i'm here now ;) . As far as your target, strength, size, stamina, sports... Protein intake can become not as important as other macros. Lets say your goal is size, calories should also be your main focus. If you're getting less than say 2000 calories, your body will use all that on functioning, not for building new tissue. Lets say your goal is for sport, stamina is a key thing so carbs should be a main macro-nutrients for you... See what i'm getting at.
4 eggs is only around 24g of protein... They're not huge sources, only dense in the nutrient. You won't see changes in a month... It takes time, as far as your goal i am unsure. Again, if it's size, look for around 3000-500 calories a day, at least 60g of protein depending on your weight, 60g of carbs as a started depending on your weight again. Micro-nutrients are also pretty important, your vitamins, minerals etc. Then your workout, that comes second from your diet. As for that you could probably pick one up of the internet if you're not entirely sure of what you're doing...
That shall be all i will tell you for now. Good luck

Agree about chicken breast, also you can add quinoa, nuts, avocado to your daily meals, they are all rich in proteins. Try protein shakes with milk, they also work
