Brief Answer:
It might be due to hormonal change with associated stress

Detailed Answer:
Hi Dear
thank for providing info
in my opinion this might be due to change in hormonal activity.
this kind of symptoms are quite normal at your age.
They are quite common in people who don't take sufficient protein in food.
I suggest you to add 2 eggs whites in food.
stress is also a important factor to be considered in this kind of conditions.
in my opinion based on given info I can say that there is no major problem.
to be on safe side take time one go for evaluation with few test.
complete blood counts
urine examination
serum protein level(albumin).

kindly write back in case of any further query

take care
