A member asked:

Having a mild dizzy spell. could it be caused by menstrual cycle or b/c i haven't eaten all day. havent had a symptom like this before & wondering?

Inconsistent info: Your profile lists you as a 22 year male! either pre-menstrual phase or being without food for a day can cause dizziness.

Various: Yes and yes. Menstral cycle if heavy especially could be part of it but if not eaten all day is a big possibility.
