Daddy Epilepsy Will I be inherited?

Whether you can be inherited or not depends on what type of disease your dad has.

Most epilepsy is not inherited, but this is not the whole story, and the best thing to do is to take your dad to the doctor to see what the cause of your dad's epilepsy is.

According to experience, the epilepsy of your father at such an age is generally not hereditary, which can be regarded as a reassuring pill for you, but things are not 100%, and I can't promise you anything, please understand.

Also, you must urge your father to insist on taking medicine and be responsible for his own body, otherwise it will be very harmful to the body again and again, and the effect of taking medicine will be much worse in the future. Be sure to pay attention!

Also, remember to let your father check the liver and kidney function regularly, after all, taking medicine is taking medicine, or pay attention to the possible *** as well.

I wish you and your family good health.

Only 5 percent of children of people with epilepsy have epilepsy. Children of people with epilepsy are less likely to develop epilepsy.

No. Epilepsy is not a genetic disease, but is caused by abnormal high-frequency discharges in the brain, caused by disorders of nervous system function, endocrine system, etc., and can be like repeated brain dysfunction caused by the expansion of surrounding tissues. You should ask your dad to go to a major hospital to check if he has more than one type of epilepsy, and then treat the symptoms**.

Epilepsy is more common in adolescents, once they reach the age of marriage and childbearing, whether they can get married and whether they can have children after marriage are very real problems in front of epilepsy patients and their relatives. And there are three main concerns about them: the first is whether epilepsy is hereditary?

The second aspect is the effect of pregnancy on epilepsy? The third aspect is whether taking anti-epileptic drugs will affect the fetus?

1. How do epilepsy patients treat their marriage and childbearing problems correctly?

Through the investigation and study of the twins of epilepsy patients, it is proved that epilepsy has a certain hereditary nature, and the size of genetic influence is related to epilepsy**. According to the survey data, 122 pairs of twins with at least one epilepsy patient, of which 44 out of 69 pairs of monozygotic twins both had epilepsy, accounting for 63%. Of the 53 dizygotic twin pairs, 5 had epilepsy, accounting for 9%.

Therefore, when choosing a spouse, patients with epilepsy should pay attention not to marry someone in the family or who has a history of epilepsy and febrile seizures, and should not marry someone who is close to the blood relationship.

2. When pregnant women with epilepsy are pregnant, the number of seizures will also increase.

This is mainly due to fluid retention after pregnancy, accelerated metabolism of drugs in the liver, and an increase in fetal tissue and placenta, resulting in a decrease in serum concentrations of antiepileptic drugs. The number of seizures is closely related to the increased severity of seizures and the degree of seizure control before pregnancy. Of course, there are also cases after pregnancy, and epilepsy control is better.

Therefore, epilepsy patients must be prepared before pregnancy, at least for more than 1 year, and strictly control the jujube calendar. In view of the fact that increasing the amount of anti-epileptic drugs may have adverse effects on the mother and fetus, the blood concentration of epileptic drugs should be measured frequently after pregnancy, and if it is lower than the effective drug level, the dosage can be appropriately increased, and the dosage must not be increased blindly.

3. Can anti-epileptic drugs cause malformations?

Although antiepileptic drugs have the potential to cause teratogenic children, they are not very common. You can't give up pregnancy just because of this, and you must not give up after pregnancy, otherwise epilepsy occurs frequently, and the danger is more harmful. In order to prevent the risk of teratogenesis, it is advisable to make full preparations before pregnancy, and it is more appropriate to get pregnant after epilepsy has been controlled for more than 3 years, and the drug has been withdrawn or reduced, of course, it cannot be postponed until more than 35 years old.

And the drug should be single, and the dose should be lowered to the lowest level possible to control the seizure.

If the patient has had a miscarriage, stillbirth, or has delivered an abnormal baby in the past, extra caution should be exercised if the patient has a new pregnancy. In general, the marriage and childbirth of epilepsy patients should be analyzed on a case-by-case basis, and adequate preparation before and after marriage, before and after pregnancy should be emphasized.

If you are unfortunate enough to suffer from epilepsy, but you still want to have a happy married life, then you need to work harder than others. Experts remind patients and friends that in fact, epilepsy patients do not need to worry too much about marriage and childbirth, and this problem can be completely solved medically, but patients and friends must make it clear to their lovers, do not deceive and conceal, and must accept formal and professional epilepsy**.

Genetic factors play an important role in the development of pediatric idiopathic epilepsy. When we say that epilepsy is related to heredity, we mean that genetic factors determine the difficulty of epilepsy, that is, the genetic predisposition to epilepsy. It does not mean that if one parent has epilepsy, the child will necessarily have epilepsy; Conversely, it cannot be assumed that a child will have epilepsy only if there are parents or close relatives who have epilepsy.

Both views are inaccurate. Because it has to do with the complexity of how epilepsy is inherited. However, if there is already a child in the family, the parents are 4-5 times more likely to develop epilepsy than the general population.

If one parent has epilepsy and one child has epilepsy, the risk of having another child is greater for the parent to develop epilepsy. Therefore, such families should be cautious about the issue of childbirth.

The inheritance mode of epilepsy is quite complex and diverse, including monogenic inheritance, polygenic inheritance, and can also be caused by chromosomal aberrations, mitochondrial gene mutations, and repeated amplification of DNA sequences. Genetic confirmation is only possible through complex biological techniques. At present, the examination in this area is still in the experimental research stage, and has not been widely used in clinical diagnosis.

Hypoxic asphyxia leads to epilepsy, which is not inherited from congenital conditions, but can also prevent the occurrence of epilepsy. There are many different types of epilepsy, and most of them are acquired. A partial predisposition to epilepsy (epilepsy) is genetically predisposed, but hereditary is not certain.

Experts point out that patients with epilepsy should do a good job of relevant marriage examinations before getting married.

Epilepsy caused by accident is not hereditary, and epilepsy caused by excessive drinking, and epilepsy caused by trauma and sequelae of encephalitis (epilepsy) are quite stubborn. Unless both men and women are suffering from epilepsy (and the risk of having children with epilepsy is 2% to 4%), the average person with epilepsy should be able to marry and have children. Many patients are worried about not being able to have children, but people with epilepsy can have children.

First of all, we should understand that epilepsy is not an incurable disease, and there are many types of epilepsy, most of which are caused by the analysis of acquired environmental factors. Epilepsy is indeed hereditary, there is no doubt about it, but the heredity of epilepsy is uncertain. Therefore, as long as the patient himself can do a good job in the management of limb examination and nursing in a timely manner, it is possible to avoid heredity.

Genetic diseases in people with epilepsy are not so scary. The hereditary probability of epilepsy is small, so patients don't have to worry too much. But for parents with epilepsy, offspring are more likely to get the disease than normal children.

Therefore, patients must choose whether to have children or not if their epilepsy is under control.

Epilepsy has the potential to be inherited. Some of the causes of epilepsy are familial inheritance, but the probability is not very high. Qingsong is mainly caused by abnormal discharge caused by cranial nerve metabolism.

Some studies suggest that some epilepsy disorders may be inherited. However, whether the disease will occur after inheritance is related to factors such as life environment and personal experience.

Epilepsy is a brain disease that causes brain dysfunction, and abnormalities of consciousness, movement, sensation, consciousness, spirit, and behavior occur. Multi-reaction, i.e., sudden occurrence, can resolve spontaneously within a few minutes, and may occur persistently in severe cases. It can be caused by brain trauma, brain inflammation, high fever, cerebrovascular disease, brain tumor and other diseases, or it may not be obvious.

Epilepsy caused by brain trauma, brain inflammation, high fever, cerebrovascular disease, brain tumor, etc., is generally not passed on to the next generation. In the absence of obvious epilepsy, some types of epilepsy have special genes associated with them, which can be passed on to the next generation through genetic factors.

Epilepsy can be passed on to the next generation, but it doesn't have to be onset. On the basis of genetic factors, life environment, personal experience, etc. will also affect the occurrence and development of epilepsy.

If a child may have an epilepsy gene, the risk of the disease can be reduced by improving the living environment and creating a good upbringing.

Epilepsy is hereditary in some cases and non-hereditary in some cases. Epilepsy is divided into primary epilepsy and secondary epilepsy. Primary epilepsy refers to unclear epilepsy, which is hereditary.

Secondary epilepsy refers to the presence of epilepsy with a definite **, and the common ** includes cerebral cortex dysplasia; Central nervous system infections include encephalitis, meningitis, and brain parasitic infections; Cerebrovascular diseases, including cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction, intracranial tumors; Systemic diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus, hypoparathyroidism, seizures may also occur in patients with certain diabetes mellitus; Febrile seizures in children can also cause seizures.

The epileptic lesion is in a different place. In terms of degree, there is a chance of heredity, not 100% heredity, and some may be after encountering special circumstances, such as encountering extreme fear and fear when you are young, you will get epilepsy.

Epilepsy is not always hereditary, but it is hereditary, some patients will not be inherited, and relatives are more likely to inherit it than people who do not have epilepsy.

It is possible for a mother to pass on epilepsy to her child, but this heritability is very small.

Epilepsy can be caused by primary epilepsy and secondary epilepsy. Primary epilepsy, also known as idiopathic epilepsy, may be related to genetic factors, if there is a family history of epilepsy. In clinical practice, it will be found that parents have a genetic history of epilepsy, and children have cases of epilepsy.

However, in clinical practice, most epilepsy is caused by secondary factors and has little to do with heredity, such as cerebrovascular disease, brain trauma, intracranial infection, brain tumor and other factors will cause the onset of epilepsy. If the mother has epilepsy, it is caused by secondary factors and will not be passed on to her children.

Many people mistakenly believe that epilepsy is inherited, but in fact, if one parent has epilepsy, the child may not have epilepsy, but the chance of having epilepsy is slightly higher.

The vast majority of children with epilepsy are not genetic, and people with epilepsy can be married or have normal children.

The ** of epilepsy can be divided into six categories:

1.Genetic and genetic abnormalities need to be determined by genetic testing;

2.If there is a problem with the structure of the brain, an MRI of the brain can show whether the brain is damaged;

3.Autoimmune factors, such as autoimmune encephalitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, Hashimoto's encephalopathy, etc.;

4.Inflammation of the brain, such as encephalitis, parasitic infections of the brain;

5.Metabolism**, such as diabetes, hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, electrolyte imbalances, amino acid metabolism abnormalities;

6.Unknown**, but not found** does not mean that epilepsy is difficult to treat, some epilepsy that does not find a clear ** epilepsy is easier to treat, so there is no need for such patients to be overly anxious.

If the mother has epilepsy, consider what caused the epilepsy. Because epilepsy is a symptom, it can be caused by a variety of conditions. If it is a congenital hereditary disease, it may be passed on to children, and there is no difference between men and women, and it is a matter of genetic probability.

If the mother's epilepsy is acquired, such as high fever, encephalitis, or brain parasitic disease, head trauma, brain injury, cerebrovascular disease, or long tumor, this acquired cause of epilepsy is not inherited.

Yes, epilepsy can be inherited, but there are so many triggers for epilepsy, so many people with epilepsy do not think that epilepsy is a genetic disease. But now people around the world generally believe that epilepsy is inherited.

Mom has epilepsy. If there is a family history of epilepsy, it is possible to pass it on to the next generation, but the chance of inheritance is relatively low. If there is no family history, it is a secondary epilepsy and is generally not passed on to the next generation.

If you have epilepsy, you can get pregnant if your condition is under control.

Epilepsy is hereditary, but not 100% hereditary.

If an epilepsy patient is pregnant, it will be hereditary. But it doesn't always mean that a child has epilepsy. It's just that the chance of having epilepsy is a little higher than that of other children, and if the epilepsy patient's condition is controlled, the general incidence is relatively small.

You ask if the mother's epilepsy is inherited from the baby? I don't think your mother's epilepsy is inherited from her mother, and she can't be passed on to her baby. Epilepsy is just that he will inherit it to his offspring when he gives birth to a child, how can it be inherited for a baby? Definitely not going to fight.

There will be hereditary genes, not 100% inherited, 80% probability.
