Objective: In this review, we aimed to systematically search, evaluate, and summarize relevant evidence on perinatal fertility guidance for women with epilepsy to provide a basis for medical staff to offer comprehensive fertility counseling.
Introduction: Cervical cancer remains the second most common cancer among women worldwide, with 85% of cases occurring in low-and middle-income countries (LMIC).
