Intimacy

I do not have Parkinson's but my husband does and I cannot find any answers to his problem. He can get and maintain an erection but gets very frustrated that his body does not follow through. He gets cramps in his legs and finds his body will not move. In the past he has blamed me and said I am not interested, not true. Nowhere in any information can I find it this is usual.

  1. Hi hopefully others who have any helpful insight will weigh in. I know it is not always the most comfortable topic to bring up with a medical professional, but has your husband spoke to his doctor about it? They may have some advice or suggestions to help. In the meantime, I included a couple articles that may be of interest - https://parkinsonsdisease.net/living/relationships-intimacy and https://parkinsonsdisease.net/answers/sex-intimacy. Hope this helps! Kindly, Jessica, Team Member
