Table of Contents


Overview

Problems with sexual function in people with Parkinson's disease are common.

If you are having problems with sexual function, talk to your doctor. He or she may be able to help you pinpoint what is causing the problem. Sometimes changes in medicine or exercise or treatment for depression may be all that is needed to solve these problems.
