According to Australian researchers published in the Medical Tribune (April 20, 1995;20), exercise can help to reduce the symptoms of menopause. Participants of the study were 220 women, over the age of 40. About 57% of the women (127) were either menopausal or post-menopausal, with 41 of these women taking hormone replacement therapy. Of the 220 subjects, 109 worked out regularly and 111 did not exercise at all. The women who exercised had less depression and a better mood in general than those in the group that did not exercise. Menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, and sleep disorders were less pronounced in the group that exercised regularly.
