A member asked:
I'm losing weight without trying. blood test are all normal except for low iron. what could be causing this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to investigate: Unintended weight loss always needs to be investigated. It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor.
