Core Tip Hormonal fluctuations, anatomical changes, and evolving family roles during pregnancy often disrupt women’s physical and emotional balance, leading to mental health challenges. This study revealed that fluctuations in anxiety and depressive emotions at different gestational stages have time-lagged associations with postpartum depression, offering a new insight for clinical management of maternal emotional health during and after pregnancy.
