I live in a cold place. My problem is that my hands and feet get quite
cold (even if I have worn gloves / socks). I am wondering what could be
the cause of this and how can it be cured.

Hypothyroidism is one thing thats possible (my mother has this). But then,
I do not have any other symptoms of this. Is it possible that my heart is
not sending the blood into my veins strongly enough?

I am a male 23 years old.

Thanks for your help.

Perhaps you have Reynauds Phenomenon. I have this. My fingers turn numb and
sometimes even blue when they are cold. But, cold can be as warm as the
mid-40s. Look it up on the internet for more information.

Move to a warm place. Or wear gloves and socks. Your choice. ;-)

We shouldn't jail people for stupidity. We should just take the warning
labels off everything and let the problem solve itself.
