Many causes: There are many causes of weight loss including endocrine, metabolic, structural and psychologic issues. You've only listed three causes when there can be dozens. You need professional help to sort through these causes. If your current doctors cannot supply you with an answer, please get another opinion. Continued weight loss can be deadly.
