Özet

Objective: To compare current prevalence of mood and anxiety disorders in pregnant and nonpregnant women. Method: The study sample included 309 pregnant women and 107 control subjects. Mood and anxiety disorders were determined by structured clinical interviews. Results: The rate of any mood or anxiety disorder was 19.4% in the pregnant women. Major depression (5.5%) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (5.2%) were the most common diagnoses in the pregnant women. There was no significant difference between pregnant and nonpregnant women with respect to the prevalence rate of mood and anxiety disorders. Conclusion: The results suggest that pregnancy is not a risk factor for the development of mood and anxiety disorders.
