Sleep with naked?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a PD patient and taking PD medication for two years.

I was told by his wife he is changing his lifestyle by sleeping naked on bed and has sex every night. He starts doing beauty care i.e facial and body massage, manicure and pedicure two times a week and putting on new clothes to be young at heart.
He is fun on looking beautiful girls

He is taking sinemet 25/100 one in every four hours.

Is it side effect of the medicine?

Is it aging process?

Kindly advise

Yes, it could be the side effect of the medications. He is experiencing hypersexuality. This is usually associated with the dopamine agonists but it can occur with sinemet also.

He will need counseling. And if this does not work, medication adjustment and/or adding a medication to control this behavior.

Yours,
