[The number of children and marriages among men with epilepsy].
In a representative group of 243 epileptic men the frequency of marriages was evidently lower than in the general population: 50.6% and 71.8% respectively, and it was lower than in the group of epileptic women. Men with epilepsy onset prior to 20 years of age and with unfavourable course of the disease married in only about 10% of cases. The number of children in the families of epileptic men--1.3 on average--was lower than in the general population. In the last decade there was a decreasing tendency in the number of marriages contracted and in the number of children in these marriages, which is related, probably, to socioeconomic conditions in industrial regions.
