Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are pre-menopausal women aged 18-56 with a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease for at least two years.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who are post-menopausal or have conditions that prevent them from completing study procedures may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This pilot study aims to explore the relationship between the menstrual cycle and Parkinson's disease symptoms in pre-menopausal women. Participants will use the My Moves Matter mobile application to track their symptoms and hormonal changes over time. The study will assess the reliability of this app in capturing symptom fluctuations and compare subjective data from the app with objective clinical assessments. The goal is to improve management strategies for women experiencing hormonal-related worsening of Parkinson's symptoms.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide women with Parkinson's disease better tools to manage their symptoms related to hormonal changes.
How similar studies have gone: While there is ongoing research into tracking menstrual symptoms in women with Parkinson's disease, this specific approach using the My Moves Matter app is novel.
