Summary
In this section, we describe psychiatric disorders in the perinatal period, with a focus on understanding the triggering of mood and psychotic disorders by childbirth (postpartum psychosis and postnatal depression). We define perinatal disorders and the perinatal period, and the issues around how these episodes of illness are dealt with in the current diagnostic classification systems – the World Health Organization’s International Classification of Diseases, 11th edition (ICD-11) and the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5) [1, 2].
