In spring, autumn and winter, unstable weather conditions cause an increase in the frequency of seizures in almost half of the epileptic patients but only in 7% in summer. The increase in frequency of seizures in unstable weather conditions did not correspond in all patients with increase of changes in EEG. The higher proportion of epileptic patients with changes in EEG in unstable weather conditions in all seasons suggests an impact of these conditions on subclinical seizure discharges in this period.

Progesterone combined with antiepileptic therapy was well tolerated and resulted in a significant reduction of seizure frequency in majority of patients with catamenial epilepsy.
