Reproductive Mental Health
Reproductive mental health - let's talk about it!
Stress, anxiety, PTSD, depression; reproductive mental health matters, and we need to talk about it! When working with a patient, I always like to think of the WHO statement, "Reproductive health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity". When it comes to reproductive health, every aspect from period health, to fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and even menopause, each stage offers its own set of challenges, and those challenges can weigh heavily on our mental health. Your mental health should never take a back seat.
