Hi and thank you for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this persistent low body temperature. Te leading cause of persistent cold sensation is a poorly functioning thyroid. Other symptoms include fatigue, constipation, dry skin, etc. Please, get consulted and do some tests to evaluate the thyroid and see if it is functioning okay.
I hope this helps. I wish you well.
