I just started my cycle yesterday and today i'm lightheaded and really tired is this normal?

Menstrual cycle: Yes, lightheadedness and fatigue can be normal symptoms of your menstrual cycle due to loss of blood. If you have heavy loss of bleeding, you may want to be checked for anemia by your Healthcare provider as this can also cause you to be lightheaded and tired. You may ultimately need a supplement or transfusion if you are severely anemic but more likely you just have these symptoms from your cycle.
