This article discusses a case study of a 21-year-old woman with juvenile-onset Parkinson's disease (PD) who was treated with deep brain stimulation (DBS). The study aimed to understand the fluctuation of motor symptoms during different phases of the menstrual cycle. The patient experienced more "off" periods with painful dystonia during the luteal phase of her menstrual cycle. The study found associations between the levels of progesterone and the modulation of beta band activity in the subthalamic nucleus (STN), highlighting the role of sex hormones in the response to medication. The study provides insights into the complex relationship between sex hormones and motor fluctuations in PD. [Extracted from the article]
