AbstractConsiderable attention has been paid to psychiatric disorders arising in the postpartum period. However, there has been very little systematic study of mental illness during pregnancy. Although quantitatively not a major problem, it can pose several difficulties for mother and fetus. This article reviews the existing literature and along with illustrative cases discusses the management of mental illness related to pregnancy. The relationship between the consultation-liaison psychiatrist and the obstetrician-gynecologist in caring for such problems is emphasized.
