Hi,
It is possible that her symptoms are due to hormonal fluctuations that are common in this age as menstruation starts and gradually becomes regular. The other possibility is that she may be suffering from some other hormonal abnormalities like thyroid. In my opinion, she should consult a doctor and get routine blood tests done, in addition to thyroid hormone levels, so that a proper diagnosis can be made.
Best wishes.
