Drowsiness, decreased performance, dry skin and hair loss may indicate a metabolic disorder in the body. She told about it”Moslente” head of the medical department of the federal network of medical laboratories KDL Olga Malinovskaya.
According to the doctor, poor metabolism can be both hereditary and acquired under the influence of external factors.
Also, its symptoms include sudden mood swings.
The doctor stressed that women are more likely than men to face problems in the thyroid gland. In this case, severe fatigue, unreasonable weight gain, depressed mood and a constant feeling of cold can indicate problems.
Sometimes these symptoms are trying to be explained by constant stress or lack of sleep. However, only an endocrinologist can reveal the real reasons.
The doctor noted that sometimes in order to normalize metabolism, you need to change your lifestyle, for example, switch to a more balanced diet, go in for sports, or simply increase the level of physical activity. In other cases, the doctor prescribes medication.
