Is it serious if i nearly passed out on my first day of period?

Faint: Sounds like you may be anemic. I would have your blood pressure checked and get your iron levels drawn.

Menses with syncope: Hello, When a woman passes out during menses, it may be a reflection of anemia, however anemia takes some time to develop. To assess for this, you would need to have your regular doctor order lab work. Other reasons for passing out would be lack of nutrition for the day, coupled with menses. These are just topics related to menses, but if this is recurrent, you should discuss with your doctor
