"Studies have shown that the cerebellum contributes to emotion regulation and social cognition. Abnormalities in this region are linked to emotional behavioral disorders, including those observed in autism spectrum disorders."

"2020 Study examined patients with chronic cerebellar stroke and found that, although these individuals exhibited reduced motor sequence performance, their abilityto learn new motor sequences and consolidate these skills over time was comparable to healthy controls."

"A study found that females exhibit higher levels of Calb1, a calcium-binding protein crucial for neuronal function, in the cerebellum compared to males... XX individuals showing greater Calb1 expression than XY individuals, regardless of gonadal sex. This suggests that sex chromosome genes play a significant role in cerebellar sexual dimorphism."

"Some studies have identified sex-based differences in cerebellar metabolism or structure; however, these differences often do not translate into function disparities."

Regular physical activity, specifically aerobic exercises, like yoga etc.

Exercise can help slow cerebellum degeneration, but it can't prevent or cure it. If you are afflicted with a disease that targets the cerebellum, you can't do anything to stop it from degenerating.
