8. Exposure to Pesticides
While this is an exceptionally rare cause of fainting, people who live in areas that are regularly sprayed with pesticides or industrial and farming areas should take note of this section; they are at a much higher risk of fainting because of over-exposure to pesticides, particularly if their fainting spells are accompanied by other symptoms that come with pesticide exposure – sometimes this is a simple rash, other times this can go as far as the burning of the eyes or the sudden thinning of the blood.
Take note of where you buy your produce, and find out what type of pesticides your produce might be treated with if you suspect that it might be the case with what you have been buying or growing. If you experienced increased instances of fainting over a long period of time, mention this to your doctor so that the best treatment options for the future can be discussed.
