So if exercise can possibly work to treat your hot flashes, why would you not try? One fact is shown in research over and over: the more sedentary you are, the worse your menopause symptoms, including hot flashes, are!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Exercise will affect your metabolism<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Exercise will affect your heart, improve it&#8217;s ability to respond and thus there is less heart racing when the hot flash is begun, and thus women are not bothered by the hot flashes as much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Exercise will affect you endocrine and gland system, which is part of how we thermoregulate. If you are a regularly exerciser you will have a slightly lower core temperature. This in tern will decrease the hot flash frequency, and it is thought that it is because the onset temperatures of the hot flashes will change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Exercise will affect your vascular system, making your blood flow better surely can cool us, even in the midst of a hot flash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. Moderate and high intensity exercise have both been shown to affect hot flashes; but oddly studies of just aerobic exercise have &#8220;only&#8221; shown benefit on mood, memory, and bones, not really hot flashes. We are not sure why, some think we just really weren&#8217;t consistent enough in the sustained aerobic intensity, in the research trials to prove the theory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everyone can do some exercise, everyone can work up a sweat, exercise is accessible.
