Menopause Gut Health | The gut brain connection

Hormone changes during perimenopause can create digestive disorders and poor gut health.

Women can experience debilitating or embarrassing gut symptoms, often struggling with bloating, wind, and abdominal pain.

These digestive disorders can often prevent women from participating in physical activities at at a critical phase of life when they need to be building muscle and bone strength.

The brain has a direct effect on the stomach and intestines. A troubled intestine can send signals to the brain, just as a troubled brain can send signals to the gut. Therefore, women's stomach or intestinal distress can be the cause or the product of menopause symptoms.
