Time trends in incidence of postpartum depression and depression in women of reproductive age
Incidence rates of PPD and depression diagnoses increased over time, especially for PPD among primiparous and older mothers. These findings could suggest either increased vulnerability or increased awareness and detection over time in these groups. Fluctuating trends overserved from prescriptions could likely be driven by external factors and not a reflection of disease trends.
