is this normal?

Question

is it normal to feel like you're going to pass out while on your period? I'm so shaky, dizzy and I feel like I'm gonna collapse..

Answer

You need more iron in your diet take iron tablets or eat more red meat as you may be anaemic

Answer

Do you have anemia or otherwise a low blood count? I have anemia, as well as long, heavy periods, so I get the exact same way.

Answer

My best friend has that same issue cause she has low iron in her system, so she takes iron pills. It doesn't make the issue go away but it helps her a lot.

Answer

Probably need more iron and fat. Red meat works but I would opt for some cruciferous veggies like blanched kale with avocado. Get some good fats that are heart healthy and will sustain you. You can go and get your iron count tested to see where you're at but if it's only during your period, you're probably just nutrient deficient. Not just iron. Our bodies don't digest/absorb the same way when menstruating. Feel better 🙌
