I'm 16 years old girl. I sleep more than 12 hours daily. And still feel sleepy and unrefreshed. Can not control my sleep at any cost. Feel restless and loss of energy. Can not even walk more a km. Is this hypersomnia?

If you feel excessive sleep or tiredness/ head spinning or vertigo like feeling you have to make sure you have no anaemia or hypothyroidism by doing a blood CBC & TSH and inform me directly Treatment for hypersomnia -- excessive daytime sleepiness -- depends on the cause of the sleep disorder. For example, if you are diagnosed with sleep apnea, your doctor may prescribe a treatment known as continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) to use when sleeping.
