Core Tip	This systematic review synthesizes recent evidence on postpartum depression, highlighting its multifactorial etiology involving hormonal, inflammatory, and psychosocial mechanisms. It evaluates emerging interventions including cognitive behavioral therapy, community-based models, and GABAergic modulation. The review proposes a stepped-care framework integrating biological risk stratification, culturally adapted tools, and digital delivery platforms, aiming to advance equitable and personalized maternal mental health care globally.
