What Causes Seizures During Menopause?

Hello, I have never had seizures or epilepsy in my life. When I went through menopause (and still am) is when I had my first seizure. I have them once a month like clock work every 30 to 32 days. I ve had all the test you can have and they all came back clean. My doctor doesn t know what is causing them. I say its menopause, what do you think? I m 65

Hi ,Seizures in late adulthood and elderly are very highly suggestive of pathologic seizures.

I advise you to do MRI brain ,EEG and systemic workup.

Have you done MRI done Kindly provide the report.
