Not really. There are many forms of epilepsy so you can have the same kinds of seizures when you are an adult as when you are a child. Issues like age and gender don't really make a difference. Some children stop having seizures when they grow up and other people will have epilepsy throughout their life and other people may only get epilepsy when they are adults.
