INTRODUCTION:

The diagnosis “puerperal mental disorders” (F53) should be of use to those pathologies not elsewhere classified. The existence of personal and family history and clinical pre made ??us include it as manic episode.

The postpartum period in this case would not be a cause in itself to explain the patient's symptoms, but due to rapid hormonal changes that occur in a woman's body, yes it can play a precipitating role.

The task of classifying a postpartum psychosis appeared difficult and complicated
