What Medical Issues Can Cause Oversleeping?

Consultation.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.
Fatigue can be caused by a variety of things. The most likely thing is that this is a normal variation in the amount of sleep you need. Or perhaps it is related to stress in your environment. Less likely possibilities include a major depressive episode, or a thyroid problem or anemia. I would visit your primary care doctor for a thorough physical examination and basic bloodwork.
