Women's Health and Parkinson's disease

Understanding how this disease impacts women in the less discussed areas including sexual dysfunction, menstrual cycle, menopause, pregnancy and hormonal medications such as contraceptives, nutrition, technology, personal relationships/support networks, can help us understand where future research should focus, and possible treatments should be directed.
