Abstract
Heart rate variability (HRV) is a non-invasive quantitative measure of cardiac autonomic nervous activity. Due to the increase of age and the decrease of estrogen level in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, the cardiac autonomic nervous function is abnormal, increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Proper exercise can increase estrogen levels, improve cardiovascular health, regulate cardiac autonomic nervous activity, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Low-moderate intensity aerobic exercise, resistance exercise, aerobic combined resistance exercise and mind-body exercise have positive effects on HRV in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. Therefore, summarizing the effects of different exercise modes on HRV in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, as well as the mechanism of exercise training improvement on HRV, so as to adopt better exercise strategies to improve HRV of perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, and thus reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and improve the health level and quality of life of perimenopausal and postmenopausal women.
