Hello doctor,
I am a 19 year old female. My height is 5 feet and 6 inches, and my weight is 160. For the past month, I have been experiencing weight loss, increased hunger, increased thirst, and frequently need to go to the bathroom to pee out large amounts. My skin has become dry. I have also lost quite a bit of weight. I experience moodiness and I am often tired despite a good night's sleep. I brought these up with my doctor but she dismissed my concerns. What could be causing these symptoms?
Hello doctor,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- All of these symptoms, along with weight loss and dry skin point to diabetes.
- Polyphagia refers to excessive hunger or increased appetite.
- Polydipsia refers to increased thirst.
- Polyuria refers to increased urination.
- .I suggest you screen yourself for blood sugar levels and thyroid profile. It is highly likely there will be abnormalities.
