Reduced sex drive
Parkinson’s disease causes damage to the nerve cells that enable men to have a feeling to the genitals and cause an erection. The male patients suffering from Parkinson’s disease experience uncomfortable sex mainly because of the jerky or stiff movements by the muscles supporting erection and the act of sex. As a result, almost 80 percent of the men with Parkinson’s disease lose the drive or ability to have sex. A doctor can help patients with erectile dysfunction to deal with sexual issues resulting due to Parkinson’s disease and fulfill their sexual desires.
