Hello and welcome to HCM.

Thank you for your query.

I can understand your concern. The medications provided to you are mostly hormonal (eg. progesterone), which can easily cause all the symptoms you are experiencing.

As for your period, as you have not provided me with details of your cycle, your last period, etc; it is a little difficult to comment on this. I would request you to calculate the date of your last period and find out when you are expecting your period. If you are soon expecting your period, this could be attributed to the period as well. As all your symptoms are normal and of no serious concern, it might not be important to find the exact cause. Just wait it out, and if you do not get your period in 24-48 hours, your symptoms were most probably due to the effect of the supplementary hormones prescribed to you.

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications. I would gladly help you.

Best wishes.
