  • Summary

  • Perinatal mental health (PNMH) issues refer to the period from the point of conception to a child’s first birthday. It encompasses several different mental health conditions and components far beyond the traditional understanding of post-natal depression and has an important impact on families and society. In part, the huge burden and associated cost is driven by how common PNMH problems are for both men and women. PNMH issues are more common than any physical health problem in pregnancy, so there is a need for GPs to look for and manage them to ensure the best outcomes for families and children. In this episode, Dr James Waldron welcomes Dr Jenny Barnes (GP, Warwickshire) to discuss PNMH problems and help raise awareness of the risks and impact, as well as simple ideas to support families in clinical practice.
