Why Am I Always So Exhausted?

I’m a 60-year-old gentleman who has just retired from my position in public service. Lately, I've been feeling constantly tired. Could you please advise me on how to address this?

Possible causes of fatigue may involve: - **Nutritional deficiencies** – Insufficient levels of iron, vitamin B12, vitamin D, or magnesium can significantly lower energy levels. Missing meals or consuming excessive amounts of processed carbs often result in drops in energy. - **Thyroid and hormonal imbalances** – These issues are particularly common among women. - **Chronic stress or burnout** – Reduced cortisol levels due to ongoing stress can drain your vitality. - **Dehydration** – Even mild fluid deficiency can lead to mental fogginess and physical weakness. - **Undiagnosed health conditions** – Issues such as anemia, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), digestive tract infections, or others could be responsible. If someone has experienced prolonged tiredness, this should prompt them to undergo thorough medical testing so they can uncover the underlying issue and begin appropriate treatment.
