hi ive been suffering from dizziness before my periods now for the past 2 years since i had my dd, i get dizzy b4 hand slightly and am better once my period starts and then i also feel dizzy a few days after my period has ended!! ive seen a neuro, ear specialist and none of them can come up with any reason for my dizziness but its very annoying. Does any1 else suffer from this. i also spot in between periods every month and have been told this is hormonal, this has only been happenin since i had my second child 2 years ago!!! please help!!! im only 27!!!

I have that too (haven't had kids though) and it is because my iron is low. Once I take some iron tablets I am fine. Your iron could have come back as 'normal' but sometimes normal for everyone else isn't normal for you. Did they check your Ferratin levels (iron stores). Sometimes my iron has been okay but at that time of the month my iron stores go very low.
You could test the hormonal theory by trying the pill for a few months to see if anything improves. Any history of problems with hypoglycemia or anything?
Good luck.

You might be going through menapause at an early age. It's not uncommon and many women go through this. Some women stop there periods in there late 20's late 30 and some get in mid 40's. Go see a gyne about this.

i also do this get dizzy spells before and after my period and i just started doing this about a year ago then i got to where i was skipping periods completely or spotting in between my dr told me it was a hormonal inbalance i ended up having to have a DNC because the lining of my uterus was to thick which was the reason i was spotting in between or not having periods at all hoped this helped this was just my experience

if you've seen all those specialists, i'm sure they've checked your hemoglobin to make sure you're not anemic. what about your iron levels? do you get really bad cramps with your periods?

get to a doctor and request to have bloodwork done to check for throid problems and anemia because you might have it from what your saying, it might be that you don't have enough iron but check with your doctor because too much iron isn't good for you.
