Analysis of risk factors of postpartum depression

Abstract

With the continuous progress of science and technology, people's survival needs are growing, and the pressure is also growing. These pressures are also a huge threat to the mothers who have just given birth. Postpartum depression is a common non obstetric complication, which not only affects the physical and mental health of pregnant women, but also affects the relationship between mother and baby and the healthy growth of infants, and may even affect the whole family, such as marital disharmony. The occurrence of postpartum depression is the result of multiple factors. The neuroendocrine disorder caused by hormone changes is the pathological basis of the occurrence of postpartum depression. The postpartum depression is also mainly related to the psychological changes caused by pregnancy and childbirth. At the same time, social factors or social support are also risk factors of the disease. Early identification of high-risk factors, targeted management and intervention are carried out in each stage before, during and after childbirth, in order to better prevent and cure the disease.
