Dizziness/light headedness is actually very common and most women will experience this at some point in the menopause.
However, it can be caused by other issues so if it is regular or gets worse, it is best to check with your doctor.
In the meantime, make sure that you are drinking plenty of water and eating something every 3 hors or so. Dehydration and low blood sugar levels can be contributory factors.
Your body tends to become more sensitive at this time so be aware of how much caffeine and sugar foods you are eating as they can trigger your nervous system, leading to dizziness/light headedness as well!
You may find sage tablets helpful for the flushes - this can be taken with your evening meal and usually starts to work quickly.
