How is everyone managing the constant hormonal changes when taking their epilepsy meds? My period is always late and the pms symptoms are severe. I take three different tablets for my epilepsy and I can't cope with these symptoms.
I've discussed it with my consultant and he says I have to stay on this cocktail of meds so I don't have a seizure. It's getting me down atm cause i feel like I'm about to start breastfeeding again 🙈🙈
I wasn't on any epilepsy medication when I gave birth so these changes are relatively new, hence why I'm reaching out.

Three different tablets! Wow! Could they not lower the dosage of one of them? I’ve only ever been on 2 at once and I came straight off one after a few months because of all the side effects. Did you start all three at the same time?
