Reasons for Feeling Light Headed. Lightheadedness can be caused by a variety of conditions. It is a fainting or dizzy sensation primarily caused by a decrease in blood flow to the brain. High blood pressure, heart attack, pregnancy, anxiety and depression are common reasons why an individual may experience feeling lightheaded.
When this happens, lightheadedness and fatigue may be the first noticeable symptoms that you are losing blood. Heavy menstrual bleeding also can cause this type of lightheadedness. Sometimes the cause of lightheadedness is an abnormal heart rhythm (arrhythmia), which can cause fainting spells (syncope). Unexplained fainting spells need to be evaluated by a doctor. You can check your heart rate by taking your pulse.
