Seizure Prevention
"While the cognitive side effects weren&#039;t too bad, I had to go off this medication because it made me develop a condition known as persistent genital arousal disorder (PGAD), along with noticeable facial flushing.  Initially, it gave me some pep in my step, and seemed like a pleasant surprise, but after a few months, the side effects intensified to the point that I couldn&#039;t look at a man without my face turning bright red, along with intense and painful arousal that wouldn&#039;t subside.  These side effects went away when I discontinued lamotrigine, and I&#039;m only insanely aroused during ovulation - like most adult women.  lol.  I just wanted to share my experience because PGAD isn&#039;t really discussed as a side effect."
