Anxiety Worse During Period

I feel dizzy/off balance during my period?
I’m 19 and on the pill. I had to go on the pill last year because i found out i was severly anemic from lack of iron from heavy long periods. Well the pill has shortened it and made it a bit lighter, but it’s still pretty heavy the first 1-2 days. I’ve been off the iron pills for about 9-10 months now but every month i just seem to feel worse during my period.
I get horrible hot flushes, frontal headaches, feel very dizzy/off balance (which is the worst, i feel like i’m going to faint!) and feel so tired and lethargic.
But i also suffer from Anxiety which gives me the dizziness and off balance feeling aswell.
So i’m wondering whether or not i’m becoming Anemic again.
Should i go and see my doctor?
Or is this reasonably normal?

iron deficiency!! get some iron tablets (they might constipate you )so u probably should get some liquid iron
I had the exact same thing, if u want to make sure go and have blood work done
