Among women with epilepsy at risk for pregnancy 29.6% used no highly effective contraceptive, including no birth control, withdrawal method, or barrier only.

The aims of this study were to determine the rate of dysfunctional personality patterns before and after epilepsy surgery, their types, and the importance of the epileptogenic zone in a sample of people with refractory epilepsy.
Genetics
