I m a 23yr old, healthy, active female. I got a copper T IUD in September and in October I began to faint. It s happened 5 times and my blood pressure has fallen from 115/90 to 90-100/70. My doctor did tests & a CT scan and said everything was fine but my last fainting spell was at work and it was embarrassing. Should I worry?

Hi. Welcome To Healthcaremagic
Do you have excess vaginal bleeding. Check your hemoglobin levels(CBC). If that is normal check your heart. Get the ECG , 24 hour Holter and Echo cardiogram
