So it's well-known that women who give birth can often undergo what's called postpartum depression. It actually comes from the word post parturition depression. They give birth, what's happier, what's more joyful than the birth of a new healthy child, and they will lapse into a depression. And that's thought to be hormonally related, either directly to the thyroid system or perhaps to the cortisol system as well.
