what causes vasovagal syncopeIs getting out of a tub a common cause of vasovagal syncope?

I had just gotten home so i decided to take a very hot bath, so i was sitting. When i went to get out i began to come very dizzy, my vision faded to black and i could feel something in my ears,then i lost consciousness for what felt like a while. when i woke up from fainting i did not feel well. Is what happened to me vasovawhat causes vasovagal syncopegal syncope, or a common cause of it?
I have had episodes of vasovagal syncope. However, I have never had an episode after sitting in hot water. I think it is normal for this to happen because hot water will expand your blood vessels which could result in less blood being pumped to your brain and therefore would result in dizwhat causes vasovagal syncopeziness and possible fainting. Once you have fainted, there is always a period of not feeling well which can last from a few minutes to a few hours.
My vasovagal episodes are more related to drawing of blood or being involved in upsetting situations which trigger a drop in blood pressure and subsequent dizziness or fainting.what causes vasovagal syncope
