Reason for dizziness during periods
Anemia
During menstruation, a part of blood comes out of the body, which can reduce the level of hemoglobin.
Blood pressure fluctuations
Hormonal changes during periods may cause a decline in blood pressure, which makes the head feel lighter and can cause dizziness.
Lack of water in the body (dehydration)
During menstruation, there may be a lack of water in the body, which reduces blood pressure and starts dizzy.
Hormonal imbalance
Changes in estrogen and progesterone hormones affect blood flow in the brain, which can make it difficult to maintain balance.
Blood sugar
Some women feel less hunger during periods, which may cause blood sugar level to fall and there may be problems of moving heads.
