👉 Postmaturity, also known as postnatal depression, is a mental health condition that occurs after childbirth. It refers to the period of time following birth when a woman experiences feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and withdrawal from her child's life, which can be triggered by various factors such as stress, isolation, or trauma. This condition is often characterized by symptoms such as irritability, emotional numbness, and difficulty concentrating, but it may also lead to anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts.
