Postnatal Depression
Dr Chetna Kang and Sophie Sulehria focus on postnatal depression
Puerperal disorders are illnesses that affect women after they give birth.
Among the most common is post natal depression which affects around one in ten women after child birth.
This week we meet a woman who had post natal depression twice, the woman who suffered psychosis after child birth and hear from people who have recovered from postnatal depression.
