“Based on the search results, the condition that many women suffer from which makes them exhausted all the time is chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).

CFS, also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), is a complex disorder characterized by extreme fatigue that doesn't improve with rest and can worsen with physical or mental activity.[2] It is more common in women than men.[2]

The key points about CFS from the search results are:

- CFS causes persistent, relapsing exhaustion that doesn't get better with rest.[5] It leads to a severe, prolonged feeling of tiredness or weariness that limits one's ability to perform daily activities.[2][5]

- The exact cause is unknown, but it may be triggered by viral infections, immune system problems, hormonal imbalances, or stress.[2]

- In addition to fatigue, CFS can cause problems with sleep, pain, cognitive difficulties, and other symptoms that significantly impact quality of life.[2][5]

- There is no single test to diagnose CFS. Doctors rule out other potential causes through medical history, physical exams, and lab tests before diagnosing CFS.[2]

So in summary, chronic fatigue syndrome, characterized by persistent, unexplained exhaustion not relieved by rest, is a condition that affects many women and causes them to feel extremely tired all the time.[2][5]
