How do you know if there's a problem with your metabolism

Hi - Is there a way of telling if the metabolism is working? i.e visiting the bathroom more frequently, sweating more. Lila x

Hi Lila

If there were a problem with your metabolism your symptoms would suggest it si working too fast (which means you would also probably be losing weight really easily!) That would seem great but it really isn't and if you did have a problem with your thyroid gland or other aspect of your metabolic control it would need immediate attention to prevent deterioration in your health.

Increased sweating can happem for all sorts of reasons - commonly it's a symptom of reaching the menopause for example. There are so  many possibilties which really could be something or nothing, that i'd really urge you to go and see your GP if you are concerned. Good luck
