Time to see doctor: A young woman can get lightheaded upon standing up from sitting if she does not get enough blood to her brain. Her primary care doctor can help figure out why. If she is anemic, such as not eating enough iron-rich foods, or having heavy periods, she may need iron supplements. However, we don't want excess iron to build up in the body. Her doctor can help with this and the other possible causes.
