Unpacking Bloating Perimenopause: How Biomarkers and Testing Reveal the Truth

Explore causes and personalized insights for bloating perimenopause using advanced testing with Mito Health.

Why It Happens

Bloating in perimenopause is extremely common as hormone levels fluctuate irregularly. These changes affect water retention, gut motility, and microbiome balance — all contributors to digestive discomfort.

Estrogen Fluctuations: Inconsistent estrogen impacts how your body retains fluid and digests food.

Progesterone Drops: Lower progesterone reduces muscle relaxation in the GI tract, slowing motility.

Increased Stress: This transition period can raise cortisol, which slows digestion and disrupts the gut-brain connection.

Worsening Food Sensitivities: You may become more reactive to dairy, gluten, or high-FODMAP foods.

Sleep Disturbances: Poor rest impacts digestion, hormones, and inflammation levels.

How to Manage

Track Your Cycle: Identify when symptoms worsen and match them with hormonal phases.

Hydrate and Move Regularly: Reduce fluid retention and improve motility through light daily activity.

Eat Anti-Inflammatory Meals: Leafy greens, berries, turmeric, and olive oil support hormone balance.

Reduce Alcohol and Sugar: Both promote inflammation and bloating during perimenopause.

Support Sleep Hygiene: Create a routine that promotes deeper sleep to regulate cortisol and digestion.

With the right strategies, bloating in perimenopause becomes easier to manage.
