Description: Postpartum depression (PPD) affects up to one in seven women and is a leading cause of maternal morbidity, with profound implications for both the patient and her family. Untreated PPD can lead to chronic depression, impaired maternal-infant bonding, strained partner relationships, and long-term developmental challenges for the child. These effects are magnified when symptoms go unrecognized or untreated. Early and routine screening, integrated into obstetric and pediatric care, is essential to identify women at risk and initiate timely intervention. Collaborative care models where primary care or OB providers partner with behavioral health care managers and consulting psychiatrists offer a scalable, evidence-based approach to managing PPD. These models improve access to treatment, ensure close follow-up, and have demonstrated superior outcomes compared to standard care.
