Low appetite and unable to gain weight
I am a 26-year-old female. Currently working in bank. I have been experiencing low appetite for quite some time and often do not feel hungry. I want to gain weight, but despite trying to eat properly, I am unable to gain weight. Sometimes I also feel weak and low on energy. Please suggest what could be the reason and whether I need any tests or treatments
Thanks
