Abstract

This longitudinal study examines the prevalence and progression of postpartum depression (PPD) in women over a five-year period. Utilizing a cohort of 500 postpartum women, the study investigates risk factors, symptom trajectories, and the impact of social support systems. Results highlight the critical role of early intervention and continuous support in mitigating long-term depressive symptoms. These insights are crucial for developing effective PPD prevention strategies.
