Episode Details

Hi Mama,

• Are you struggling with postpartum depression and wondering if medication could help—but feeling overwhelmed by all the options?
  
  
• Have you heard people talk about postpartum depression medication and wondered, “Is there actually something specifically designed for what I’m going through?”
  
  
• Are you looking for information that can help you have a more informed conversation with your healthcare provider about treatment options?

In this episode, we're talking about Zulresso (Now Zuranalone), one medication specifically approved for postpartum depression. I share part of my own experience of searching for answers during a difficult season of postpartum depression and eventually becoming part of a medical trial involving this treatment. You'll learn why Zulresso (now Zulranalone) was developed specifically with postpartum depression in mind  and why medication is only one part of a larger healing journey. Most importantly, you'll be reminded that needing treatment does not mean you are weak, broken, or failing as a mother. You deserve to understand your options, ask questions, and receive the support you need. You've Got This Mama!
Love,
