90/60 mmHg is generally considered low blood pressure, or hypotension. While some people naturally have blood pressure in this range and feel fine, it is considered a concern coz it is associated with dizziness
Next Steps
when you feel dizzy sit or lie down immediately to prevent injury from a fall. you should consult a Physician, since you have repeated episodes of dizziness or fainting. Low blood pressure can sometimes be a side effect of medication or a sign of underlying issues like dehydration, anemia, or heart conditions.
Health Tips
immediately go to emergency if you have fainting like loss of consciousness. Chest pain or shortness of breath becoming cold, clammy, or pale skin, and rapid, shallow breathing

Drink plenty of water(try at least 3 litres daily). Drink salted drinks and ORS regularly.
Avoid sudden rising from bed.
Avoid tilting head down or up for long time. That means you have to change position of head gradually and slowly.
If you feel dizziness or darkness in your eyes, lie down immediately on bed and raise your legs onto a platform.
1. Wear Compressive stocking on legs throughout the day and remove before sleep.
2. CAP. BECOSULES- 1 TAB TWICE DAILY x 15 DAYS
Next Steps
ECG 12 LEADS, 2D ECHO, BLOOD FOR CBC, SERUM ELECTROLYTES, HOLTER MONITORING(IF POSSIBLE)
Health Tips
If this stays for a long time then I will add medicines. I need to know detailed history. You need further evaluation and work up. So please consult me on practo.com for follow up

Your blood pressure of 90/60 mmHg is on the lower side and Since you are experiencing dizziness, it suggests that your BP may be symptomatically low, which needs attention.
Possible causes can be one of the below as follows
1.Dehydration (low fluid intake)
2.Skipping meals / low blood sugar
3.Anemia
4.Hormonal imbalance (like thyroid issues)
5.Stress, fatigue, or lack of sleep
Next Steps
What you should do:
1Increase fluid intake (2.5–3 liters/day)
2.Add a little extra salt in diet.
3.Avoid long gaps between meals
4.Get up slowly from sitting/lying position
5.Include iron-rich foods (green leafy vegetables, dates, jaggery)
6.Do yoga and meditation.
if issue still persist , u need to do the following test initially to rule of out few common conditions.
Complete Blood Count (CBC) – to rule out anemia
Blood sugar levels
Thyroid function tests
Regular BP monitoring (morning and evening readings)
Health Tips
Ensure adequate sleep and stress management
Consider keeping ORS solution handy during weakness or fatigue.

Chest pain or palpitations
Blurred vision

90/60 is normal for most of the adults specially female patients. But can't come to the conclusion over just one reading. You need to take your BP reading twice daily at a fixed time for 1 week and make a chart. Also do you feel dizzy when you change posture or is it random?
Next Steps
Take your BP twice daily at a fixed time for 1 week
Health Tips
Drink ORS .
