Postpartum depression and its impacts on the life of postpartum women
Resumen
Postpartum depression (PPD) is a major public health problem, affecting both the mother's health and her child's development. This type of depression seems to be the result of the woman's inadequate psychological, social and cultural adaptation to motherhood. Therefore, the objective of this review is to discuss the characteristics of postpartum depression and the impacts generated in the life of the puerperal woman and in the family network. The work in question is a literature review, carried out from the secondary collection of articles available in full. It should be noted that when detected early, there is the possibility of treatment only with the intervention of psychotherapy. However, in the more advanced stages of the disease, drug intervention is necessary. That said, it is essential to reflect on the importance of early care in PPD, aiming at professional interventions that provide the support they need to face the challenge of being a mother without losing identity, social insertion, parental relationship, among many others.
