Hello

Welcome to HCM

According to history provided by you, Most probably you are suffering from hypothyroidism. All above mentioned symptoms ae suggestive of hypothyroidism.

Hypothyroidism is common endocrine disorder and iodine deficiency is the most common cause of it.

If such patient comes to me then I advice him/her an investigation and then according to that prescribe him/her a thyroid hormone replacement with appropriate dose of medicine.

You should consult nearby physician for further evaluation of your problem and management.

Hope I have solved your concern. For any further question you can contact me.

Thank you

Dr. Om
