This review examines the association between perinatal mental illness and maternal autoimmune disease, highlighting the shared characteristics and bidirectional relationship between the two. Further research is needed to determine the specific diagnosis, severity, and timing of perinatal mental illness and autoimmune disease, as well as the relative importance of perinatal versus non-perinatal mental illness. This research could have significant implications for the prevention, treatment, and follow-up of perinatal mental illness.
This review summarizes evidence on the association between perinatal mental illness and maternal autoimmune disease and identifies avenues for future research. Perinatal mental illness has several characteristics in common with autoimmune disease, including increased incidence in the early postpartum period, recurrence across pregnancies, evidence of elevated immune-mediated cytokines, and familial risk, as well as the general predominance of mental illness in females versus males. Several studies have demonstrated elevated risk of maternal autoimmune disease in women with perinatal mental illness, and of perinatal mental illness in those with autoimmune dysfunction, suggesting a bi-directional relationship. Further research is needed to elucidate the importance of the specific diagnosis, severity, and timing of perinatal mental illness and specific diagnosis of autoimmune disease, as well as the relative importance of perinatal versus non-perinatal mental illness. Such research could have implications for prevention, treatment, and follow-up of perinatal mental illness.
