Purpose: To compare the antiepileptic drug (AED) treatment patterns, seizure control, and folic acid supplementation between planned and unplanned pregnancy in women with epilepsy (WWE) and to investigate the effects of planned pregnancy on fetal outcomes.Methods: A prospectively collected database including WWE with pregnancy from Feb 2010 to Dec 2018 was retrospectively analyzed. Planned pregnancy was defined as WWE being regularly supervised by epileptologists from the time of intended pregnancy until delivery. Clinical characteristics and fetal outcomes were compared between the planned and unplanned pregnancy groups. Logistic regression was used to identify modifiable factors associated with adverse fetal outcomes.Results: A total of 188 planned pregnancies and 289 unplanned pregnancies were enrolled in our study. Among planned pregnancies, 66.0 % took AED monotherapy, and 32.4 % received polytherapy. Among unplanned pregnancies, 58.1 % didn't take AEDs, 28.0 % took monotherapy, and 12.8 % received polytherapy. The planned pregnancies had less generalized tonic-clonic seizures (P=0.002) and higher proportion of being seizure-free (41.0 % vs. 22.8 %; P
