The HPA axis and perinatal depression: a hypothesis
Archives of Women's Mental Health, 09/01/06
M. Kammerer, et al. - There is evidence that after delivery some women experience mild bipolar II depression, and others experience post traumatic stress disorder. Both of these are associated with atypical depression. It may also be that some women are genetically predisposed to depression of the melancholic type and some to depression of the atypical type. These women may be more or less vulnerable to depression at the different stages of the perinatal period
