HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Heavy periods can cause dizziness because of the excess loss of blood so this could be a definite cause of your symptoms.
They would not usually be associated with an increase in temperature. A fever suggests that there may be an underlying infection. Viral illnesses are more common eg the cold or flu.
If an infection is present, it would also contribute to the dizziness and also to the headache.
If you symptoms persist or worsen, you would need to consider seeing your doctor for an assessment.
I hope this helps
