Is HIIT good for bloating during perimenopause?

HIIT can be helpful for managing bloating during perimenopause. Exercise influences hormone levels, neurotransmitter balance, inflammation, and sleep quality, all of which play a role in bloating.

The key with HIIT for bloating is matching the intensity to your current state. On days when bloating is more severe, a gentler approach to HIIT may be more beneficial than pushing hard. On better days, you can increase the challenge.

HIIT specifically may help with bloating through improved circulation, endorphin release, stress hormone regulation, and the natural anti-inflammatory effects of movement. Consistency matters more than intensity. Regular HIIT, even at lower intensity, tends to produce better results for bloating than occasional intense sessions.
