Brief Answer:
propably due to stress

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for giving history in details,

From history what comes to my mind is that your problem is due to stress because of lack of proper sleep,
You don't have any other symptoms associated,
So need not worry,
Its most likely to be due to over exertion and stress only,

Take healthy sleep atleast 6-8 hr a day,
Drink plenty of water atleast 2-3 litr /day,
Eat fresh fruits,

This simple measures will definetly help,

If problem persists,and
you experience any symptoms like yellowish discolouration of urine,abdominal pain,fever with chills,
Burning micturation,
Then visit a physician and get your symptoms evaluated,

Hope this information helps,

If you don't have any further query please feel free to rate the answer and close the discussion,

Wish you good health.
