Catamenial (Menstrual-Linked) Epilepsy Overview

When to See a Doctor

If you have catamenial epilepsy, you’ll need to regularly see your doctor. Regular visits will help your doctor monitor your condition and make new prescriptions when necessary.

Vital instances that should make you visit your doctor:

  • When you get a seizure attack for the first time
  • If the seizures get worse or more often than usual
  • If you sustain an injury during a seizure
  • If the episode lasts for long
  • If you have an attack during pregnancy
  • If it gets difficult to wake up after an attack.
