Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
Dizziness related to blood pressure normally occurs when moving from the sitting or lying position to the standing position because of a fall in blood pressure.
In most persons the blood pressure stabilises as the persons stands but in some, due to different causes, the blood pressure drops on standing causing symptoms. Since your symptoms are occurring when you bend over, it is less likely to be related to blood pressure.
Dizziness with different head positions including bending over, is often related to BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo). This causes episodes that last a few seconds or minutes with particular head positions.
It is related to the inner ear.
It can be diagnosed by an ENT specialist or neurologist who would perform particular maneuvers to determine if this is the cause.
Treatment ,if it is confirmed, involves the doctor putting you through another type of maneuver called epley's maneuver.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
