fainting

917177 tn?1243354247 Is it normal for one to experience lightheadedness and fainting during menstruation? It's happened to me so many times before, typically as soon as my period/cramping starts I'll feel lightheaded, sweaty, and I'll fall to the floor and sit with my head on my knees. Occasionally this happens in the shower, or upon standing up if i wake up with my period, or even if it starts while I'm seated during a class.
876503 tn?1240165953 Thanks for reading! I'm a 23 y/o active female with a history of very severe symptoms during menstruation (nausea, vomiting, fainting, the works). Over the past few years I've been put on several Rx's for pain and nausea. I'm also on BC (Yaz) and have never been pregnant. These symptoms have continued to worsen, and a month ago I've started fainting and vomiting with little to no warning, and not during menstruation.

Avatar m tn Can mefenamic acid prolong your menstruation and slows down your blood flow during menstruation?
Avatar f tn We though I was delay and the blood occurred is a baby but the next few days I had my menstruation. After that menstruation cycle and every time we had a sex until the next months there is no bleeding occurred. My boyfriend friend's said that it was internal bleeding. Is he right or is there any problem in my vagina? I did not see or check any gynecologists about this matter because I'm afraid of the results.
Avatar f tn 2 weeks ago I had sudden intense nausea shortly followed by dizziness and fainting. My menstruation period started the same day and my vitals were fine. Besides abnormal pain, fatigue and nausea my period was normal. Since then Ive been having pelvic cramping, queasiness, intermittent bloatedness, short lived headaches, occasional fatigue. I had flatulence last week and have been less regular so I took laxatives which was followed by these symptoms being intensified for the following 2 days.
Avatar f tn Yes, some women have cyclic bleeding although it is not menstruation. Menstruation is the shedding of the uterine lining and you can't do that when pregnant. But you can have hormonal bleeding. It is generally early in pregnancy though and not heavy like a true period.
Avatar m tn I'm in the same boat! But I was experiencing fainting so I went to the Dr. & they ordered blood work to test me got several things & I tested positive for pregnancy, but if I try a urine test it says negative. Being it's to early for the hormone to show up. I'd give it a few more days & try again! Also sometimes if you worry that can change your menstruation, so try to relax & good luck!

Avatar f tn s not pain but like some light pressure or light head then feeling like I will faint (without fainting) this last a minute or little bit more or less and then leave me disturbed then everything back to normal, after few months it was getting better and almost disappeared but sometimes I feel low without reason, I thought it's matter of hormones with breast feeding.
Avatar f tn Hi i don't take medication, I following Ray Peat's dietary suggestions, I have trouble losing weight, fatigue, joint pain, irregular menstruation, ovarian cysts, the doctor didn't test antibodies, he did not think it would be necessary, but I will like consider an other opinion, thanks
Avatar n tn Your body temp rises during ovulation (because of hormone production by your corpus luteum) and then it falls when corpus luteum dies and you get your period.

Avatar f tn Did u try finding out the reason?? I know fainting can be caused by many things during pregnancy but some can lead to more complex situation.. U ahould consult ur doctor as it could be due to high or low blood pressure or dehydration etc...
