Abstract

The Perinatal period, encompassing pregnancy and the postpartum stage, is a critical time that significantly affects women's mental health and overall well-being. Suicides and suicidal ideation pose pressing public health concerns during this period. High-risk factors, including depression and other mental disorders such as schizophrenia, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and adjustment disorder, further emphasize the need for attention. Healthcare providers play a vital role in identifying at-risk women and connecting them with the necessary resources and mental health services.
