Patient's question:
My friend is now pregnant, and he also has epilepsy. You have had several episodes. What should be done about epilepsy during pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Women with epilepsy should avoid pregnancy. During pregnancy, they cannot take medication. It can easily trigger a recurrence of epilepsy. Seizures may interfere with the baby's health. It can easily cause the baby to choke or have difficulty breathing. If you don't take medication or have seizures during pregnancy, consider yourself lucky. The baby born may inherit epilepsy through generational transmission. Epilepsy is still a worldwide disease that is difficult to treat. If a woman has epilepsy, she is generally not allowed to divorce. If she gets divorced, she should not have children.
