Can epilepsy cause someone to not never get a period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A history of epileptic seizures, treated or untreated would not cause amenorrhea, but many anti-epileptic medications can affect female hormonal function. However, these medications would not be expected to ablate menstrual activity, and another explanation could likely be uncovered by an experienced OB-GYN specialist. Perhaps an endocrinologist may be helpful in addition
