It’s actually low blood pressure. Hot water makes your blood vessels open wide. This drops your blood pressure quickly. Less blood flows to your brain for a short time. This causes dizziness or lightheadedness.

As a nurse, these comments are a mess! It’s caused from vasodilation from the hot water. It LOWERS your blood pressure and reduces blood flow to the brain, causing dizziness. Your heart rate increases trying to compensate for the decreased blood flow. Your water is too hot! Add some cold water to prevent this.

Take your heart rate and blood pressure right after. There are many types of POTS, and I have the high blood pressure kind (hyperandrogenic)

Usually low. Hot showers vasodilate, BP drops, heart rate increases to compensate

yep...when I was 31, had a bad headache, took a hot shower and I had a stroke in the shower. Ems said the hot water increased circulation to the point it sent me into a stroke
