I am also severely underweight.
If you think we have a similar problem, in my case it's because of overly active thyroid gland. I've seen doctors about it, there are possible options like medicine or removal of thyroid but then you have to take hormones because a small amount is required.
However they said that I'm not unhealthy so the best option is to do nothing.
I'm taller than you and weight a bit more, maybe your case is more severe, so I guess ask a doctor, but have some doubts, don't blindly go for every possible treatment...
