  • Title: A feminist perspective on postnatal depression.
    Author: Jebali C.
    Journal: Health Visit; 1993 Feb; 66(2):59-60. PubMed ID: 8449750.
    Abstract:
    Many women will experience postnatal depression (PND) after the birth of their child and will receive treatment which is generally medically prescribed. The definitions and treatment of PND to a great extent remain in the hands of the medical profession: an area dominated by men, where PND is usually perceived as an individual illness. Christine Jebali explores from the alternative viewpoint of feminist theory PND as a condition exclusive to women.
