Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In teenagers, hormonal imbalance can causes similar kind of systemic symptoms.
So consult gynecologist and get done hormone levels.
Of she is found to have hormonal imbalance then hormone pills should be started.
Once her hormones are normalize, she will be alright.
If hormones are normal then possibility of stress and anxiety related symptoms is more likely in teens.
So consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in her life and start working on its solution.
She may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, she will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your daughter. Thanks.
