A woman's cultural and social context affects her experience of postnatal depression. In this literature review, the authors explore questions regarding normal and abnormal postnatal experiences of Indian women with consideration to cross-cultural perspectives. Although postnatal distress or sadness is recognized among many cultures, it is constructed as a transient state in some cultures and as an illness in others. A major challenge for health care providers in Western countries like the United Kingdom and Australia is to develop culturally sensitive approaches to postnatal care for migrant mothers.
女性的文化和社会背景会影响她产后抑郁的经历。在这篇文献综述中，作者从跨文化视角探讨了有关印度女性正常和异常产后经历的问题。尽管产后困扰或悲伤在许多文化中都得到认可，但在一些文化中它被视为一种短暂状态，而在另一些文化中则被视为一种疾病。在英国和澳大利亚等西方国家，医疗保健提供者面临的一个主要挑战是为移民母亲开发具有文化敏感性的产后护理方法。
