New web guides have been developed for youth with epilepsy. These guides were created collaboratively between people with epilepsy, multidisciplinary physicians, and the Center for Young Women’s Health.

These guides cover topics such as: 

  • Anti-seizure medications and birth control
  • Caring for infants and breast/chest feeding
  • Menstrual disorders and epilepsy
  • Anti-seizure medications and birth defects
  • Pregnancy planning and epilepsy
  • Transitions from pediatric to adult healthcare 
  • Mental health and epilepsy
