Postpartum depression also affects fathers
A recent study has shown that postpartum depression can also affect new fathers, with a 30% increase in incidence after childbirth compared to during pregnancy. Its symptoms among men vary and include irritability, aggressive behavior, social withdrawal, and excessive use of alcohol or drugs, due to hormonal changes and the pressures of new roles. The findings indicate a gap in the psychological support provided to fathers compared to mothers, which negatively impacts family relationships and children's behavioral development. The study emphasizes the importance of awareness and psychological support for both parents after childbirth to ensure good mental health for the family.
