Hello,

You have to get it done a routine examination for liver or kidney or thyroid function.

Common causes are major illness or tuberculosis or malignancy or infection or endocrinal disorders like hyperthyroidism or hypercatabolic state etc.

Please consult your physician/endocrinologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
