OBJECTIVE
To present the interim findings of the Epilepsy Birth Control Registry (EBCR) regarding the impact of various contraceptive methods on seizures, stratified by antiepileptic drug (AED) type.
METHODS
This is an observational study that reports interim findings on the first 750
BACKGROUND
Secondary endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) for the management of shunt failure may be efficacious, though it may be followed by more frequent complications (including endocrinological impairment, e.g., amenorrhea) compared to primary ETV. These complications are usually
Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA), a synthetic progesterone, was added to the antiepileptic drug regimen of 14 women who had uncontrolled seizures. Of the 11 women who developed amenorrhea, 7 reported fewer seizures during MPA therapy. Overall reductions in seizure frequency averaged 30% (n = 11),
We present two siblings with hereditary cortical cerebellar atrophy (CCA), who showed peculiar clinical features. Their unaffected parents are cousins. The mode of inheritance in this family was autosomal recessive. Both patients developed involuntary movement and ataxia during the fourth decade.
Seizure disorders frequently are diagnosed and managed during adolescence; therefore, obstetrician-gynecologists who care for adolescents should be familiar with epilepsy and other seizure disorders, as well as antiepileptic drugs. Patients diagnosed with seizure disorders during childhood may have

Menstruation may cause many difficulties in the care of mentally retarded women. We have applied the low-dose endometrial after-loading irradiation method for the termination of menstruation of such persons. So far, we have studied 29 women during the period 1970-1978. Twenty-two of them had earlier
In 82 pregnancies between 9 and 14 weeks of amenorrhea, 120 registrations of active movements of the embryo were recorded by the ultrasonic time motion technique. Four types of early motility could be observed: Ia = single convulsions of the body, Ib = series of body convulsions, II = rapid
Schizencephaly is an anomaly of the subtotal brain development, which occurs as the presence of a cleft lined with grey matter extending from subarachnoid space to the ventricles. It may be manifested by psychomotor retardation, paresis or partial seizures and drug-resistant convulsions. The
Objective The main purpose of this article is to define prognosis of pregnancies in epileptic women in Benin. Methods This was a case-control study that included 54 epileptic women who had at least one pregnancy matched to 162 controls on age, pregnancy term, and monitoring center.
For girls with physical and developmental disabilities and their families/caregivers, puberty and menstruation can present significant problems such as vulnerability, abuse risk, unintended pregnancies, difficulties with managing menstrual hygiene, abnormal uterine bleeding, dysmenorrhea, behavioral
Most obstetrician-gynecologists will encounter adolescents with disabilities in their practice, because developmental and physical disabilities are common in young patients (8.4%). Reproductive health issues such as puberty, sexuality, and menstruation can be more complicated for teenagers with
