Is rowing good for hair thinning during perimenopause?

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

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

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