The symptom of dizziness in three women is found to have similar ontogenetic influences and closely allied precipitating factors. Characterologically, these patients had many similarities. These women had been precociously sexually stimulated and their constantly vigilant egos tried to be prepared for any situation that might lead to sexual excitement. The three patients developed sensations of dizziness in response to unexpected sexual stimulation. The symptom, in each instance, was correlated with a disturbance of psychological equilibrium.
