Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows:
1. Most commonly anemia could be the cause.
2. However, it seems hypothyroidism fits into the diagnosis more.
3. Get your Thyroid profile evaluated along with hemoglobin estimation.
4. Based on values, further treatment can be started.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
