Abstract
Reflex epilepsy is a condition in which seizures can be triggered habitually by an external stimulus or, less commonly, by internal mental processes. The seizures triggered by visual stimuli are common types of the reflex epilepsy. Epileptic seizures induced by sexual orgazm and somotosensory stimuli are very rare in the literature. In this study two cases of reflex epilepsy which have been triggered by sexual orgazm are reported.
