I Have Been Having Seizures Since 2014, Just Days After

I have been having seizures since 2014, just days after having my first son. I was diagnosed with epilepsy and was treated with an anti-epilepsy med. not much changed at all. I went back to my neurologist he requested a 7 day continuous EEG. their findings were that it was not traditional epilepsy as there wasn't much to see from the EEG. I was diagnosed with PNES. I have always questioned if this was my true final diagnosis. they tried treating me with anti depression and anxiety medication, which caused tremors and did not help the seizures at all. I recently conceived in February. about 2 weeks prior I had my last seizure. Its been over 6 months now with O episodes. it was brought to my attention that there was a seizure disorder caused by hormone imbalance. I could not track my cycle as ive been on birth control and had irregular periods or none at all for the past 4 years. is it possible my seizures were due to hormone issues if now that I'm pregnant, I'm not having them anymore?
