Does pregnancy cause fainting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: You should definitely see your doctor immediately if this happens. Most commonly it is caused by a sudden drop in your glucose levels or blood pressure which are a result of the hormone changes of pregnancy. However sometimes it could be due to a problem with your heart, etc so it should never be ignored.
