Women & Parkinson’s: Strategies & Stories

While Parkinson’s affects everyone differently, there are some key differences in how women experience and manage their symptoms compared to their male counterparts. Women experience Parkinson’s symptoms and respond to medications differently than men, they experience more barriers to care, treatment and support, and are underrepresented in research. Understanding these differences and disparities is crucial to creating a support network with better care, treatments, and programming tailored for women with Parkinson’s. Watch as Dr. Indu Subramanian discusses the unique symptoms experienced by women with Parkinson’s, how gender roles may impact care and support, and fifteen things that women need to know about Parkinson’s.  Li Jiang and Sylvie Parent also joined to share their unique perspectives as women living with Parkinson’s – the challenges they face, and the strength they’ve found within themselves and in the Parkinson’s community. #Parkinsons #ParkinsonsAwareness
