HI
Well come to HCM
Your query is appreciated, what the symptoms you have right now may not be due to hormone taken but it seems to be viral infection, if this is the viral fever then you have to be patience for three to four days even some time more days but it is nothing to worry have bed rest and drink more water in case of high grade fever antipyretic can be tried like Acetaminophen 500 mg else no need to worry hope this information helps.
