Needs evaluation: It depends on how heavy your periods are. Women who have heavy menses are at risk for anemia and therefore low blood volume. This can translate into low blood pressure, which is why some can feel dizzy. It is necessary for evaluation by a doctor, your pcp or ob/gyn, in order to determine this. Blood count, electrolytes, and BP measurement are important to determine the cause of your symptoms.
