Brief Answer:
Yes it is normal.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
All these symptoms are due to delay in the periods. The associated hormonal imbalance can cause all such minor problems. These will disappear after the periods will start. Just wait for the periods to begin.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
