Hyperventilation refers to breathing faster or deeper than the body requires at a given moment. This can lower carbon dioxide levels in the blood, a state known as hypocapnia. Because CO₂ helps regulate blood vessel tone, significant drops in CO₂ may lead to symptoms such as lightheadedness, tingling sensations, or temporary changes in focus. Hyperventilation can occur during stress, panic, or as a habitual breathing pattern.
