Real Talk from Women Living with Parkinson’s

The Michael J. Fox Foundation Parkinson's Podcast

In this raw and emotional conversation, four women with Parkinson’s living in four different countries discuss the challenges faced because of delayed diagnosis, hormonal changes, lack of information and treatment, research inequity and gender biases. They share how they live better with the disease by advocating for themselves with their health care team and how they empower other women through awareness and activism.
