Rapid Weight Gain & Low Energy? These 7 Signs Could Be Thyroid!

1. Unexplained Weight Gain
   Sudden weight increase despite normal eating habits may signal hypothyroidism (slow thyroid).
2. Constant Fatigue & Low Energy
   Feeling tired all day, even after enough sleep, is one of the earliest signs.
3. Hair Fall & Dry Skin
   Excessive hair thinning, brittle hair, and rough, dry skin can indicate hormone imbalance.
4. Feeling Cold More Often
   If you feel unusually cold when others don’t, your metabolism may be slowing down.
5. Mood Changes & Brain Fog
   Depression, anxiety, irritability, or poor concentration can be linked to thyroid issues.
6. Irregular Periods or Fertility Issues (Women)
   Thyroid hormones directly affect reproductive health.
7. Swelling in Neck / Hoarse Voice
   A visible swelling (goiter) or frequent voice changes should never be ignored.

❗ Why This Matters

The thyroid controls metabolism, energy, heart rate, and hormones. Early detection can prevent long-term complications like heart problems, infertility, and severe fatigue.

👉 What to do:
If you notice 2–3 symptoms together, consult a doctor and ask for a TSH, T3, T4 blood test.
