Gila Bronner. J Neurol Sci. .

Abstract

Sexual problems are common in Parkinson's disease and contribute to poor quality of life of patients and partners. Nonmotor and motor disease manifestations can affect sexual function. This article reviews the progressive and multidimensional sexual manifestations and provides practical suggestions for taking sexual history and treating sexual problems, which may enable clinicians to contribute to the sexual wellbeing of patients.
