Dear Ma'm
Thanks for writing to us.
Definitely there are no precipitous falls in BP associated with menses. It may go down a bit as you lose blood, especially on day 1 or 2 , however it must not produce any symptoms and it should not be too low. If any of these happen you must see your gynecologist. It is not clear from the query that how much was your baseline BP and how low it has gone?
Usually anginal heart disease does not occur in menstruating females unless they re smokers or have diabetes. Sharp transient pains are against the possibility of angina. Still if pain persists do see your physician.
Sincerely
