The ReproPsych Group

ReproPsych is a group of clinicians and researchers in the field of reproductive mental health. Many of our members are very well known in this area and have published numerous papers in the peer reviewed literature on this subject. We formed this group to keep abreast of the current literature and to analyze each paper carefully following publication, especially when there has been extensive media coverage.

Our goal

To provide balanced information so that healthcare providers can make informed evidence-based, risk assessments about the treatment of psychiatric conditions during pregnancy.
