Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 31 years old and male. I would like to ask, can epilepsy patients marry and have children? I used to have epilepsy, but I kept putting off getting married. Now I have a girlfriend, and I don't know if this disease can be inherited across generations.Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, it may not be possible. Because epilepsy can be inherited from generation to generation. Go to the hospital for a check-up to see how epilepsy is carried from the womb. If the epilepsy is caused by post-natal factors, it may be possible to get married and have children. The treatment methods for epilepsy include psychological therapy, surgical treatment, and medication. Medication may be difficult to persist due to side effects.
