Catamenial epilepsy: a review
Epilepsia.
1980 Jun.
Abstract
This review of 126 reports on catamenial epilepsy describes seizure exacerbations associated with the menses. The importance of hormonal measurements, the influence of antiepileptic drugs and oral contraceptives, and the significance of hormonal changes on epilepsy are evaluated. The EEG changes during menses are discussed. Explanations for conflicting data are offered, and potential future investigations on catamenial epilepsy are suggested.
