Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory disease of central nervous system, with a prevalence rate in France of 1 case/1000 subjects (120 000 subjects in France). The average age at diagnosis is 30 years old and it affects especially women, with a sex ratio of 3 women for 1 man. Many different treatments exist, depending on the severity of the pathology and the evolutivity of the disease. It is very important to understand that some treatments are not compatible with pregnancy. In these circumstances, a regular gynecological follow-up seems to be essential, to discuss contraception and pregnancy. Besides, some treatments have an immunosuppressive activity that is why a gynecological aftercare is necessary, especially in the detection of papillomavirus for cervical cancer. The neurologist can advise about gynecological issues, but he cannot take care of the gynecological follow-up, that is why it is very interesting to study the quality of the gynecological follow-up. The investigators aim to study gynecological care of patients with multiple sclerosis using a questionnaire made especially for this project. The questionnaire will be filled by patients when they come in the neurology department for a consultation or during their visit at day hospital. At the same time, they will fill a standardized questionnaire about sexuality and quality of life. This project is a monocentric study realized at Pellegrin Hospital - Bordeaux. Patients with multiple sclerosis belong to a cohort of the neurology center (CRCSEP).
