Brief Answer:
Need to rule out Hormonal imbalances due to cyclical nature of symptoms.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam.
I understand your concern.
Many of her symptoms could possibly be related to her hormonal profile imbalance.
Before formulating specific therapy,I advise you to get following tests on her after consulting your family physician.
They include Complete blood counts,Complete thyroid profile,Ultrasound of the abdomen.
A 5 day trial of antibiotics like Amoxiclav 650 mg twice a day under expert medical supervision will help to control her symptoms related to sinus infection.
Post your further queries if any.
