Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history of a male of 31 feeling lethargy, lower stomach protrusion, and weakness in arms and legs hands feel weak.
It is difficult to say with such a short history the probable causes of your symptoms.
The most probable causes I can think of are:
Hypothryroidism
Anemia
Some chronic diseases like diabetes and so on.
I would advise you the following:
Get a clinical evaluation and examination and investigations according to the clinical findings.
This way the root cause can be found out and proper treatment started to get the results.
I find this answer helpful
