A number of causes

Detailed Answer:
Dear sir, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but this could be due to a number of causes.. I would recommend that you get a blood test for thyroid hormonal profile including T3, T4 and TSH to exclude hyperthyroidism. I would also recommend that you get a blood test for vitamin b12 and vitamin d levels to exclude their deficiency. I hope you find this helpful
