What Causes Constant Sleepiness And Lack Of Energy In A Woman?

I m tired all the time. I could sleep 16 hrs a day. I use a sleep pap machine all the time but I wake up every day and I feel like I never went to bed. My husband gets mad at me because I just can t do like I once did. Why do I always want to sleep or just sit with no energy?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

Excessive sleepiness and lack of energy could be caused due to iron and protein deficiency.

Kindly take iron supplements along with folic acid for a month. Along with that, supplement with intake of protein powder mixed with milk twice daily.

Also, eat healthy food, consume more fruits and drink good quantities of fluids everyday. Gradually, you should be able to overcome the problem.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
