First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether having a planned (elective) or unplanned (emergency) C-section affects a mother's risk of early postpartum depression. Researchers will review medical records of 4,000 women who gave birth at Massachusetts General Hospital. They will compare depression screening scores from 6-8 weeks after delivery to see if the type of delivery matters.
