Bags under eyes can have various causes, ranging in severity from 'troubling' to 'very serious'. Finding the true cause means ruling out or confirming each possibility – in other words, diagnosis.
Diagnosis is usually a complex process due to the sheer number of possible causes and related symptoms. In order to diagnose bags under eyes, we could:
Cause | Probability | Status |
---|---|---|
Lack Of Sleep | 93% | Confirm |
Liver Congestion | 22% | Unlikely |
Food Allergies | 5% | Ruled out |
Hypothyroidism | 3% | Ruled out |

Possible responses:
→ No / don't know→ Yes, somewhat → Yes, pronounced |
