Hi. If your period is heavier than usual you might have some anemia. The nausea can either be due to the dizziness or hormonal fluctuations. The latter may be the cause of the irregular periods. You can have your CBC or blood count taken just to know how bad is your anemia if you have 1. Go to your OB about the irregular periods. For now increase water intake and dont do anything strenuous.
