Why am I constantly tired?
Fatigue is a non-specific symptom that can have many causes. Here are the most common reasons that can be checked with simple blood tests:
1. Thyroid problems
The thyroid is the powerhouse of your body – if it produces too few hormones, many processes run at a low flame. An underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) often leads to exhaustion, lack of drive, and weight gain. With the Thyroid Check Plus , thyroid levels and other relevant hormones can be reliably analyzed.
