Hello Akish,hope you doing good. Well the symptoms you have mentioned above are totally normal, we call it premenstrual syndrome, almost 85% of females experience these symptoms during their first day of period or few days before periods. Exact cause of premenstraul syndrome is unkown but it is believed that it is caused by changes in sex hormones (Estrogen & progesterone) and some chemical changes in brain. Treatment of it involves some Non-steriodal anti inflammatory drugs like tablet Ibuprofen 400 mg or diclofenic tablet 50 mg once in a day, and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor like fluoxetine 20 mg once in a day for mood related symptoms.
