Core Tip Perinatal depression (PND) is associated with a hyperactive niacin skin flushing response (NSFR) compared to non-perinatal depressive disorder (DD). NSFR may be useful as a biomarker for distinguishing PND from DD. Advanced maternal age, later pregnancy and postpartum stages, delayed help-seeking, and high poultry intake are identified as risk factors for PND, whereas vegetable and egg intake appear to have a protective effect against postpartum depressive symptoms.
