Regarding your question “What could be the possible causes of headaches and nosebleeds in women?”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:The presentation of recurrent headaches, dizziness upon awakening, and recurrent episodes of epistaxis with fresh blood for several consecutive days warrants prompt medical evaluation. This could be caused by various reasons such as nasopharyngeal cancer causing bleeding, blood cancer, blood clotting disorders, metastatic cancer, foreign objects in the nasopharynx, uncontrolled hypertension, etc. Frequent bleeding can cause chronic blood loss, leading to dizziness and headaches. Therefore, you must see a doctor for diagnosis.
For further clarification regarding headaches in women, we encourage you to schedule a consultation at any of the hospitals within the Vinmec Health System. We appreciate your confidence in Vinmec and for submitting your query. We wish you optimal health.
