Postpartum Depression
Which factors act as protective, and which as risk factors, for its development?
Can we predict and prevent the onset of postpartum depression?
Yes, we can.
Unfortunately, the usual practice is to proceed with diagnosis after symptoms have already appeared, at which point interventions can only be therapeutic.
However, new approaches developed over the past five years now allow us to identify both the protective factors that support the expectant mother and the risk factors that increase the likelihood of developing postpartum depression.
The ReMindSet Pregnancy Support Program
At ReMindSet, our Pregnancy Support Program is founded on early assessment and regular monitoring of conditions throughout pregnancy, much like a Holter check. After an initial evaluation during the early months, factors such as stress levels are monitored using advanced technologies.
These new methods provide reliable, cost-effective monitoring, ensuring that we do not reach the point where symptoms have already appeared and treatment becomes the only option.
Prevention is the most effective approach to postpartum depression.
