Gilles de la Tourette syndrome in pregnancy

Our guest for the 7th episode of "Gilles is in the air" is Dr Anna Castrioto from the Grenoble Alps University Hospital in France.

View her research works. 

We talk about hormonal changes and tics, contraception methods in association with anti-tic treatments, tic changes during pregnancy and post-partum, treatments that are not recommended during pregnancy and the ones that are harmless.
We address the same questions in relation to breast-feeding, enquire about concerns for DBS in women with TS during pregnancy and the difficulties they encounter in coping with TS in their role as mothers.
