Briefly stated, a postpartum disorder is a hormonally induced state affecting a mother both mentally & physically. Drastic changes take place during pregnancy and after childbirth in the mother’s hormonal and biochemical make-up which may lead to a chemical imbalance in the brain. Added responsibilities of a new baby, changes in lifestyle, personal expectations, and chronic exhaustion are only a few of the factors which may lead to a postpartum disorder.
