Sexual dysfunctions (SD) are a relatively common problem in men with epilepsy; the prevalence ranges from 38-71%. Etiology may be multifactorial and may involve both the epilepsy and the use of antiepileptic drugs. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence of SD in epileptic men, assessing the type of epilepsy, seizures frequency, antiepileptic drugs used, the serum hormonal profile and the presence of psychiatric disorders.
