Summary

This study tests a faster version of a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called TMS for pregnant and postpartum individuals with depression. Instead of daily sessions for 6-8 weeks, participants receive multiple treatments each day for just 5 days. The goal is to see if this accelerated approach is safe, tolerable, and helpful for easing depressive symptoms.
