Postnatal Depression: Numbers and Care | Cork News
Description
Nearly 200 women were diagnosed with postnatal depression last year through specialist services — just a fraction of the thousands affected nationwide. Most cases are managed in primary care, but new HSE hubs in Dublin, Galway, Limerick, and Cork aim to support those with moderate to severe symptoms. Symptoms vary widely — from loss of appetite and concentration to agitation and crying — and can emerge after birth, during pregnancy, or as a recurrence. This underscores the urgent need for comprehensive mental health care across all levels of the system.
