Underweight, low blood pressure

'Ask Dr. Mona': Does Low Blood Pressure And Low Iron Cause Heavy Sleeping?
I am 23 years old(male) and I weigh somewhere between 95 and 100 lbs. I have never weighed over 100 lbs. I was curious if I should possibly see a doctor over this. I am always tired no matter how much sleep I get And was told by a friend that low blood pressure and iron may cause this.

Check out this video for Dr. Mona's answer!

@peanuts447

I used to be in your situation dude

don't worry when you hit the age 18-20

your metabolism will not shut off

but

you will gain more pounds

just don't care/worry about it right now

I'm 5'9" and range from 100 lbs to 110 lbs... yea its fucked my weight jumps around daily. I've got a bad case of OCD/Tourrettes which makes it really hard for me to eat. I can can only eat hand foods and I want to know what healthy, hand-foods I should eat to gain some serious weight and I already take ensure (meal supplement).

Yeah im 6 feet 115 pounds. I hate it when people say that they are underweight when they are 6 feet 150 pounds. They are normal.

@Makron5 Bullshit. I'm 15 y.o. 5'10" and only 122 pounds (and no I'm not anorexic). It's not as easy as you think. I have a high metabolism so even if I overeat, I don't gain any weight. Believe me, gaining weight can be just as hard as losing it. Maybe not for you but for people like me, hellz yeah.

I could fix the problem of being underweight super easy. It's just being overweight that I have a problem with :/
