From Time To Time When I Am In The Shower I Blackout For A Couple Seconds. Can Someone Tell Me Why?

Answer Question

3 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    If you spend too much time in a hot shower your body heats up and the blood vessels in the skin dilate to try to get rid of the excess heat. This causes your blood pressure to go down slightly and you can feel dizzy or even faint.

    The answer is to limit your time in hot showers, but don't forget to wash behind your ears.

      I think that toast is right but you do need to be careful about falling. Some meds when you get to hot can do this too

      Summer's right. I forgot to add when you feel this coming on, sit down. It will pass in a minute.

        This happened to me about 4 minutes ago.
        I was in the shower putting conditioner on my hair when I started to feel tired and drained so I got out and I had to lie down on the floor I was so out of energy my vision was blurry and the border of my vision had white stars.
        Thanks for explaining how this happened its good to know Im normal.
