Hematologist-Oncologist Questions Dizziness

Does low iron cause dizziness?

I've been having some issues with light headed stuff and dizziness. My doctor said the only thing that is off is my iron levels, which are a little low. Could low iron levels be making me dizzy?

Typically low iron causes anemia. Anemia can cause dizziness. If there is no anemia, it should be checked for alternative causes.
Only if you're anemic. My first suspicion would be medication effects, if you're on any, second a virus that will go away by itself.
