Menopause Bloating 

Periods of menopause bloating are frequently linked to changes in hormones levels.  Although menopause is a normal biological life event for every woman, many women sense a number of physical and emotional changes, including bloating along with other menopause symptoms. This experience can be attributed to a combination of hormonal changes, diet, stress, fluid retention and rises in intestinal gases.  Bloating is one of the most commonly experienced menopause symptoms.

Many women experience the symptom of menopause bloating most commonly caused by varying hormone levels and especially due to declining levels of estrogen. Water retention is more usual in the time leading to menstruation, however, when these estrogen levels become changeable, bile acting as lubricant decreases and leads to water retention which in turn causes bloating. Bloating is a very frequent symptom among menopausal women, and this feeling of tightness or fullness in the abdomen can be of great distraction and discomfort.

The experience of a bloated sensation could be the consequence of unbalanced nutrition, or of untimely or irregular food intake resulting in gas retention.  Such foods that could cause this are: Milk, beans, cabbage, onions, sugary foods some cheeses or wheat, to mention a few.

Fortunately, menopause bloating is not a serious symptom but rather a natural occurrence. Most women also experience bloating at some point during their menstrual cycle, either during ovulation or just before or during menses and perimenopause.

In most cases, a few simple habits added to one’s daily routine coupled with all natural plant-based menopause symptom relief supplements can considerably decrease bloating and ameliorate other symptoms associated with menopause.

As to Foods - Having meals at regular intervals and consuming food items that diminish gases in the abdomen are easy solutions to adopt. Avoid the previously mentioned foods that might add to bloating. Regular gentle exercise two or three times a week can also help in overcoming menopause bloating, and so can the practice of yoga, or other light exercise.

Menopause Bloating can be Reversed with Phytoestrogens – Clinical evidence shows that phytoestrogens, especially the more powerful phytoestrogens found in all-natural plant-based supplements concentrated from flax hull lignans can help to balance female hormones and in so doing, manage boating symptoms and other menopause symptoms.

In menopause bloating, air occupies the abdomen bringing about a sensation of heaviness and discomfort along with varying degrees of pain. While menopause bloating is a natural occurrence and is not a serious disease, if the bloating is not subsiding you should consult a professional.
