I have a problem, I don't know if it is with my he alth or my body. Well, my weight has been dropping very quickly for some time. I do not follow any diets and I have never used them, I eat quite regularly. I lost 5 kilos in a week and I am a little worried. With a height of 171 cm, I weigh only 49 kilograms! Maybe it has something to do with the stress caused by graduation? Please help.

Stress in some people can cause significant weight loss, but 5 kg in a week is unbelievable for a thin person. If it is not a weight failure, please do blood tests - blood count, ESR, possibly TSH (a hormone showing the condition of the thyroid gland - its hyperfunction causes significant and rapid weight loss).
