Biomarkers of Postpartum Psychiatric Disorders provides an up-to-date reference on the current research relating to biomarkers in psychiatric disorders, including major depressive disorder, OCD and bipolar disorder in the immediate postpartum time-period. It is the only reference on the market that synthesizes and interprets available data and reviews clinical phenotypes. Topics cover hormonal contributions, immunology, epigenetics and neuroimaging. While the risk of psychiatric illness during pregnancy appears to be equivalent to the risk at any other time in a woman's life, the risk in the immediate postpartum time period is dramatically increased, hence the importance of the discussions in this title.

Identifies epigenetic, hormonal, immunological and neuroimaging biomarkers Provides biomarkers for depression, OCD and psychosis Includes clinical phenotypes for psychiatric disorders Discusses future research and directions in the field

Case Studies in Reproductive Psychiatry provides a comprehensive review of current research on Premenstrual Mood Disorders, Pregnancy and Lactation, and Perimenopause and Postmenopause following a woman’s reproductive lifespan. The book takes a unique approach by combining current research literature with a collection of case studies of women with different types of psychiatric disorders in various reproductive stages. Case studies include women with psychiatric disorders who are planning for pregnancy, pregnant women with psychiatric disorders, women with postpartum psychiatric disorders, and those with premenstrual or perimenopausal mood disorder.By combining current literature and case studies, this book reinforces the comprehension of foundational research ultimately leading to better treatment options for women undergoing psychiatric disorders.
