Is swimming good for heart palpitations during perimenopause?

Swimming can be helpful for managing heart palpitations during perimenopause. Exercise influences hormone levels, neurotransmitter balance, inflammation, and sleep quality, all of which play a role in heart palpitations.

The key with swimming for heart palpitations is matching the intensity to your current state. On days when heart palpitations is more severe, a gentler approach to swimming may be more beneficial than pushing hard. On better days, you can increase the challenge.

Swimming specifically may help with heart palpitations through improved circulation, endorphin release, stress hormone regulation, and the natural anti-inflammatory effects of movement. Consistency matters more than intensity. Regular swimming, even at lower intensity, tends to produce better results for heart palpitations than occasional intense sessions.
