🤱 Postpartum Screening

A brief postpartum mental health screening based on the Edinburgh scale.

Instrument: EPDS

About this screening

The EPDS (Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale) is a standard screening tool for postpartum depression. If you've recently had a baby, this can help you consider whether to seek evaluation. This is not a diagnosis.

This screening is for informational purposes only and is not a diagnosis. Only a qualified provider can diagnose postpartum depression.

If you're in crisis: This screening is not for emergencies. Call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or dial 911 for immediate help.

Prefer to talk to a provider directly?

You don't need to take a screening first. You can schedule a psychiatric evaluation at any time.

In a crisis? Call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or 911 for immediate help.
