Suggest Treatment For Persistent Dizziness And Headaches
Question: Hi I have been feeling very sick at night dizzy and very bad headache. I don't take any medication. I am 27 yrs of age. I had the XXXXXXX coil fitted in February this year I have done a pregnancy test as feeling faint at work this was negative.
Brief Answer:
possibly hypotension
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to hcm,
The reason for dizziness and headache could possibly be low blood pressure or hypotension in your case and not MIRENA in any ways, simply because its a progesterone IUD and have been fitted in february, long time back to actually manifests any symptoms now. But sometimes dehydration of decreased water intake during the day with progesterone being released daily from MIRENA can often cause these symptoms. Pregnancy has been ruled out, so suggested that you should get your blood pressure checked and if low, then try maintaining a daily water intake of 4-5 litres of water, this should help.
