Psychological sequelae in women following either parturition or non-gynaecological surgery (original) (raw)

Journal of Reproductive and Infant Psychology, 1998

Abstract

Childbirth, in 10% of cases, is followed by an affective disorder. However, whether this is specifically due to parturition or reflects a generalized stress response is unclear. This prospective study uses the Profile of Mood States to assess mood in 96 women before and after parturition and, unlike previous studies, compares the results with those from women undergoing non-gynaecological surgery
