Why is it that every time i take a shower i feel like fainting?

Drop in blood press: It is possible the combination of both standing and hot water (which may dilate your veins) causes a drop in cardiac output which causes a drop in blood pressure which causes decreased blood flow to the brain which causes fainting.
