Hi,
Welcome to HCM!
There can be several reasons for this weight loss.
Some of the common causes are:
Tuberculosis
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Persistent diarrhea
Malignancy (Cancer)
and several other causes.
It is impossible to point out once cause.
To be able to tell the cause, a detailed history and examination with investigation is needed.
I'd suggest you to visit a doctor as early as possible and get examined and investigated as per his suggestions.
Hope I've answered your query. Feel free to ask if you have any doubt.
With regards,
Dr. Sridhar
