Epilepsy requires careful management and monitoring through a woman's lifeEpilepsy is a complex disease. The hormonal changes women experience, both day-to-day menstrual fluctuations and the longer waxes and wanings of a reproductive lifetime, make the management of epilepsy even more complicated.

The wide-ranging approach encompasses all aspects of a woman's life including: Social EpilepsyWomenDiseasesSex factors in diseaseEpilepsy.WomenDiseases.Sex factors in disease.616.85/30082Harden Cynthia L896989Thomas Sanjeev V896990Tomson Torbjörn1950-896991MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910141503803321Epilepsy in women2004225UNINA
