Postpartum Dizziness: Causes, Relief & When to Worry


Question
I have been feeling very dizzy and not well.  I had my 2nd baby 8 weeks ago.  This came on 3 weeks back.  I went to the dr and he said that all my tests came back fine.

I've seen many other women online with this same problem but never any answers.  Can you help?

Answer
What do you mean by feeling dizzy. Is it lightheadedness  or a feeling of weakness or a sense of rotation of the body or the environment? Dizziness has many causes ranging from problems in the ear, brain, eyes, cervical spine and blood. So it is a blanket term . To help me understand your problem, I need some  more info.

1. Do you have any vomiting?
2. Do you feel dizzy in certain positions only?
3. Is there any associated sweating/blurring of vision?
4. Do you have any ear ache or discharge from ears?
5. Have you changed glasses recently?
6. Do you suffer any cardiac or neurological illness?
