hi there! so i have lately (over the past 2 months) become extremely tired even when i have a good nights sleep. I have been getting headaches- which i dont normally have, and am much more easily annoyed. Also, i gained almost 10 lbs in 2 weeks and 3 months ago about half the hair on the left side of my head fell out. I am just wondering if all these can be consequences of stress or something more serious.

Your symptoms most probably sound of hypothyroidism. I would suggest you visit your concerned doctor who would assess you thoroughly and ask you to do a complete blood profile including the thyroid function tests.
