Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By her symptoms, possibility of stress related symptoms is more.
But better to rule out hyperthyroidism as this can cause all such symptoms in young females.
So get done serum TSH, Free T3 and free T4.
If all these are normal then no need to worry for thyroid diseases.
Sometimes, uncontrolled stress and anxiety can cause such symptoms.
So consult psychiatrist for her and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in her life and start working on it's solution.
She may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, she will be alright with counselling sessions and anxiolytic drugs.
Ask her to avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your daughter. Thanks.
