This study aimed to assess the prevalence of anxiety and depression and related factors in pregnant women during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
This cross-sectional study was conducted on 403 pregnant women using a web-based survey. The hospital anxiety and depression scale was used to measure anxiety and depression.
The prevalence of anxiety and depression was 64.5% and 56.3%, respectively. Working status, physical activity status, discomfort with hospital visits, having information about COVID-19, and being informed by healthcare workers about COVID-19 were factors related to anxiety (p < .05). Education level, physical activity status, discomfort with hospital visits, and having information about COVID-19 were factors related to depression (p < .05).
The aforementioned factors should be considered for reducing anxiety and depressive symptoms during pregnancy.
