Catamenial seizure experts?

Sun, 06/11/2017 - 11:09
I'm wondering if there are recognized experts in catamenial seizures? My daughter has been seizure free for years but now has had one a month for the last five months. I am now tracking it I believe they are all at the end of her cycle. She is AED free and I'd love to know if we can attempt to ease the hormonal surges for her. I looked at her today and saw that she had broken out on her face and back and I just knew she was having a hormonal surge and was going to have one and she did. We live in Washington DC.
