Causes and consequences of postpartum depression among women
semanticscholar(2013)
Abstract
The causes and consequences of postpartum depression were explored in this paper. Researchers have found that childbirth is joyful for some women but emotionally disturbing and stressful for others. Genetic, environmental, and biological variables have been implicated as factors that influence the experience of postpartum depression among women. However, due to a lack of consensus about the relationship between these factors and postpartum depression, the nature and causes of postpartum depression is still unclear. The lack of consensus is due in part to variations in the types of postpartum mood disorder described in studies. There is a need for systematic studies that explore causes and consequences among high-risk population and women of diverse ethnic backgrounds. Current problems in understanding diverse and contradictory findings will ultimately be resolved with long-term follow-up studies examining the genetic, environmental, biological and psychosocial factors among control groups without postpartum depression and those with postpartum depression.
