Does epilepsy be inherited to the next generation?

Patient's question:

My wife has epilepsy. It usually recurs only once a year or more. Now she wants to have a child. Will the child inherit this disease across generations?

Doctor's answer:

Epilepsy can be inherited across generations, but it's not 100% guaranteed. The specific likelihood is related to the condition's severity and the patient's gender. Primary epilepsy is more common than secondary epilepsy, and women are more affected than men. Patients can opt for the SOMA (Soma) — Intracerebral Permeation Activation Technique. This method flexibly utilizes advanced high-resolution dynamic EEG examinations to identify the epileptogenic focus. With the aid of computer navigation, it precisely targets the neuron soma and permeates it. The procedure enhances the slow decomposition metabolism of neurons, infiltrates to repair damaged neuron cells, and continues until complete functional recovery is achieved. It balances abnormal pulses, restores the normal potential difference across the neuron cell membrane, opens ion channels on the cell membrane, and ultimately recovers all internal brain functions.
