Dizziness: Many things cause dizziness with standing but the most typical cause is dehydration. If the dizziness resolves in a soon after standing and especially if she has a reason to be dehydrated (playing sports, not drinking, recently ill, hot conditions, etc) it could just be dehydration. Other causes such as a viral infection in the inner ear or other inner ear or neurological conditions are possible.
