You know that exercise is important for overall health, but it is especially important when you are facing perimenopause symptoms. Exercise benefits women in unique ways.
For women with perimenopause symptoms, exercise helps you to:
- … regulate stress your levels. Physical activity has a regulating effect on the adrenal glands, which play a major role in perimenopause symptoms, and hormone balance in general.
- … maintain a healthy weight. Excess fat on the body produces estrogen, which can contribute to symptoms associated with estrogen dominance.
- … stabilize your mood. Endorphins, those feel good chemicals, are released when you exercise.
- …sleep more deeply. When both your body and mind have been worked at the end of the day, sleep comes more easily.
- … produce nitric oxide to keep your libido going, according to Dr. Christiane Northrup.
Dr. Marina Rose, DC has helped women with perimenopause symptoms and people with other challenging, chronic health conditions in and around the city of Mountain View, CA. She finds that addressing adrenal function is key to resolving perimenopause symptoms.
Exercise plays an important role in adrenal health. It is essential to work out at a moderate level that does not trigger the release of stress hormones.
