Dear sisters, mothers, daughters and friends,

Epilepsy doesn’t treat women the same as men. Hormonal changes during menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause can increase seizures in many women (this is called catamenial epilepsy). Medicines can also affect contraception, bone health and even breastfeeding.

But here’s the good news: with the right information and care, women with epilepsy can plan pregnancies safely, manage seizures better, and live happy, fulfilling lives.

At Indian Epilepsy Association, we are committed to supporting every woman in India who lives with epilepsy.
Today we want you to remember:
• Regular check-ups with your neurologist are a must
• Folic acid and safe medication planning before pregnancy matter
• You deserve support — not stigma

If you are a woman with epilepsy, a caregiver, or simply someone who cares — drop a in the comments and share this post. Let’s spread awareness together!

Together we can break the silence.

Today, we mourn the loss of a giant in the field of Neurology. Prof. U.K. Misra from SGPGI Lucknow was more than just a brilliant academic; he was a dedicated healer whose commitment to patient care and society was exemplary.

​Those who had the honor of knowing him will remember not just his clinical mastery, but his deep humility and kindness. His demise leaves a void in the medical world that can never be filled.

​Our heartfelt condolences to his family, colleagues, and the countless students he mentored.

​Rest in peace, Prof. Misra. Your legacy lives on.

💜 Purple Day for Epilepsy Awareness 💜

On this Purple Day, let’s come together to shine a light on epilepsy — a neurological condition that affects millions in India and around the world.

Watch this powerful message from Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar and Tim David from Royal Challengers Bengaluru. They remind us that with awareness, understanding, and timely care, people living with epilepsy can lead full, active lives — just like champions on the field.

Key facts everyone should know:

Epilepsy is treatable in most cases with proper medical care.
Anyone can have a seizure — it does not define a person.
Stigma and myths still prevent many from seeking help.

The Indian Epilepsy Society urges all of us to:
Wear purple and spread awareness
Break the silence and myths around epilepsy
Support those living with the condition with empathy and knowledge

Small actions today can create big change tomorrow. Share this video, talk about it with your family and friends, and help build a more inclusive society.

Together, let’s turn purple into hope.
