-- [ From: Donna Kipp * EMC.Ver #2.10P ] -- I recently received my copy of the Young Parkinson's Newsletter and noticed an article on PD and Estrogen therapy, Having recently been put on Estrogen read it eagerly and was surprised to read that there is a negative effect between Estrogen and dopamine. It is sometimes hard for me to realize exactly what is going on particularly when something new has been added. I realized I wasn't feeling very well but I thought I would give it a couple of months before I could really evaluate what was going on. I called my neurologist and he verified what I had read. I have gone off the Estrogen and after 3 days I must say I am feeling better. My Gynecologist new nothing about this , of course there probably aren't too many of us menopausal PDers out there, so I guess it is back to hot flashes. Donna
