Perinatal mental health (PNMH) problems affect one in five women and one in ten men. They can present in several ways, including depression and anxiety, but also post-traumatic stress disorder, adjustment disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder and psychosis. In the third episode of the perinatal mental health series, Dr James Waldron and Dr Jenny Barnes (GP and Perinatal Mental Health Champion, Warwickshire) discuss what to do in clinical practice when PNMH issues are suspected. Prevention is better than cure, so it is worth taking steps to identify people at risk and offering support and treatment where necessary.
