Abstract
Pregnancy in Parkinson's disease (PD) is an uncommon occurrence. Available reports suggest that there may be a worsening of PD symptom severity related to pregnancy. In this special report, medical literature on pregnancy in PD will be reviewed with regard to disease progression and the safety of antiparkinsonian medications. A case report of pregnancy in a woman with PD will be described. It is speculated that the symptoms of PD may be affected by changing hormone levels.Entities:
