Postpartum Depression Postpartum psychosis is a more severe postpartum syndrome. Its onset is usually within the first three weeks following delivery and often within just a few days. Most episodes are related to a psychotic condition of bipolar disorder or major depression. The symptoms include delusion, hallucinations, rapid mood swings ranging from depression and irritability to euphoria, sleep disturbances and obsessive ruminations about the baby. The risk of suicide in postpartum psychosis is high (up to five percent) and up to four percent of women with postpartum psychosis may attempt infanticide. Postpartum psychosis is a psychiatric emergency that often warrants hospitalization. The prognostic implications are different from postpartum depression. Nearly two-thirds of these patients will suffer subsequent non-puerperal psychotic episodes. Back to Top Traditional Therapy A traditional approach to therapy in this condition usually involves either psychotherapy or the use of antidepressant medications. In 1988, Dr. Katherina Dalton visited the Pope Paul VI Institute because of our interest in premenstrual syndrome. During the course of that visit, she commented on her long experience with the use of progesterone in the treatment of postpartum depression. In addition, she seemed to think that postpartum depression was a very common problem. In our own clinical experience, this condition has actually been very rare. The incidence of postpartum depression at the Pope Paul VI Institute is only 2.1 percent. At the time, we thought that because progesterone support during pregnancy in our high-risk pregnancy population was common, it may have had an impact on the overall incidence of postpartum depression in our patient population.

Up to eighty percent of women experience a phenomenon called the "postpartum blues." This is a brief period during which women are tearful or extremely sensitive and may be more moody. Sometimes sleep is a problem. The "blues" usually resolve without treatment within 1 to 2 weeks of giving birth. Women who are most vulnerable to postpartum depression usually have a personal or family history of depression. Studies show that most women who experience major depression after childbirth have had prior episodes of depression even though they may not have been diagnosed or treated. Those with prior episodes of postpartum depression will experience a recurrence following the next delivery about half of the time. Single women, those in unsupportive relationships, and women with multiple children also may be more at risk. What can I do about postpartum depression?
