Affecting more women then men on average, and characterized by the presence of deep and persistent physical exhaustion, the condition known as chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) affects women usually below fifty years of age-thus the condition can be said to be a young woman's disorder, since as a demography it affects such individuals the most.

The typical symptoms of the condition are a persistent physical weakness and constant listlessness occurring most of the time. The affected person will complain of a difficulty in sleeping, he or she has trouble concentrating, and finds it's hard to perform daily tasks at home or in the office. An added symptom in most patients is a deep and underlying depression that comes along with the other physical symptoms.
It is not known whether the condition known as CFS is a specific condition caused by singular factors or whether it is a combination of unrelated symptoms displaying collective outward manifestation-indeed most medical experts disagree on its exact nature.
It is suspected that a malfunctioning immune system response could play a role in the origin of the condition, however, the specific factors that cause CFS remain a mystery and its development is attributed to unknown underlying factors. In general it is observed that individuals suffering from the symptoms of CFS also possess other immune disturbances in the body, these include 65% of patients who report they suffer from an allergy to something or another.

This is in stark contrast to versus only about 20% of respondents in the general population-counting both males and females. Other patients suffering from CFS also suffer from autoimmune disorders like lupus, these diseases are characterized by the a haywire immune system, where the immune system begins to attack the body's own healthy tissues bringing about the destruction of important organ systems in the body and disrupting vital metabolic pathways.
The underlying causes and triggers for CFS have still not been elucidated by doctors and other research is still to shed light on this condition. Though the appearance of certain signs and symptoms apparent in the patients can foretell the condition, these include the presence of flu like illness just before the beginning of physical fatigue so characteristic of CFS. A persistent viral infection is however indicated by some CFS symptoms in most patients.
Taking this viral infection line, some suspected infectious viral agents possibly thought to contribute to CFS include, the Epstein-Barr-this virus brings about mononucleosis in humans. Infection by candida has also been suspected-this organism makes way for other infections, such as yeast infections in humans. The presence of a low blood pressure, inflammation of the brain tissues and sub-optimal levels of certain hormones have all been touted as possible causes or contributors to the development of the condition in people.
Having said this, the real cause of CFS has not been marked out and absolutely nothing concrete has been identified in the manner of a causative agent.
