A member asked:
I have secondary amenorrhea and have very low estrogen. can such low levels of estrogen cause extreme dizziness? would taking a bcp help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Low estrogen: Low estrogen will not cause dizziness, and the oral contraceptive is an Rx that is also very low estrogen and will inhibit natural estrogen production. A MD needs to assess why the estrogen levels are low and causing the amenorrhea as there is almost always a remedial cause.
