Abstract:
Postpartum depression (PPD) is one of the most common complications of childbirth around the world. Despite several studies on the underlying mechanisms, the pathophysiology remains elusive. The aims of this thesis were to assess possible associations between the risk for self reported PPD and serum levels of leptin, the season of delivery, the gender of the newborn, and the history of premenstrual symptoms, respectively. A population based cohort of 2318 newly delivered women in Sweden were screened five days, six weeks and six months postpartum, using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale

Thesis (MA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2002<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This review examines the medical model's conceptualisation of postnatal depression (pND) from a feminist perspective. The arguments are fourfold: Firstly, it argues that the fundamental problem underlying the concept of PND is its conception as existing on a continuum with psychosis at the most severe end and maternity blues at the least severe end. The link with psychosis implies that it is potentially pathological requiring medical and psychiatric intervention. On the other hand its link with maternity blues gives scie

Knowledge about Postnatal Depression (PND) and associated risk factors which influence the development of PND is vital for early detection and intervention. Worldwide PND affects on average 10-15% of women after giving birth regardless of socio-economic status, race or education. Studies also reveal that the prevalence of PND is as high as 40-60% amongst women after gi

Abstract:
Background: Postnatal depression (PND) is one of the most common maternal mental health problems for women worldwide. Yet the wide range of reported rates of PND in different countries raises questions about how PND is experienced by women in different cultures and whether interventions developed in western cultures are appropriate in very different settings. It is important to establish how PND is defined, experienced and managed in different cultures in order to create culturally relevant interventions. No previous studies of experience of PND and its management have been conducted in Malays

PPD drabbar cirka 13 procent av alla kvinnor som har fött barn.

Bakgrund: Föräldraskapet förknippas med glädje, självförverkligande och hopp om framtiden. Ibland blir inte den första tiden med barnet vad den nyblivna modern tänkt sig, en del kvinnor känner sig nedstämda medan andra upplever att de inte är förberedda för allt vad föräldraskapet innebär. Kvinnan kan bli rädd för att inte behärska den nya rollen som mor. I Sverige drabbas varje år cirka 10000 kvinnor av depression de första månaderna efter barnets födelse. Symtomen är nedstämdhet, känsla av att vara värdelös, oro, trötthet, svårt att känna glädje för sitt barn och tankar på att skada barnet.
