Its more likely lack of iron in your blood. This can happen with prolonged periods and it makes you lightheaded, weak and dizzy especially upon changing positions like standing.

Eat some Beef for your protein, rare as you can stand it. I would suggest broccoli but its not on protocol although I ate it with no problem all through P2. I have an iron deficiency so even a short period will do this to me and food is my only option for increasing it.

You could take a iron supplement just to get your levels back up. I have trouble with them, they upset my stomach and make me nauseous.
