مستخلص: Objectives Postpartum depression (PPD) is a significant health concern associated with several risk factors. This study aims to assess the prevalence of PPD and its related factors in a tertiary care hospital in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, specifically King Khalid University Hospital (KKUH). Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted of 187 females aged 18 to 50 years old who gave birth at KKUH. Data were collected from the same participants at two stages using the same questionnaire, which consisted of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) and demographic questions. In the first stage, the participants were selected randomly. The second stage included participants who scored less than 9 on the EPDS in the first stage and were asked to retake the questionnaire four weeks later. Results The prevalence of PPD found in this study was 50.3%, which is higher than in other studies that have been conducted in the country. Furthermore, factors such as sleep disturbances (p = 0.005), loss of interest in daily activities (p = 0.031), mood swings (p = 0.021), frequent bouts of sadness (p < 0.0001), and frustration or worry (p < 0.0001) were all found to significantly increase the risk of PPD. Conclusion This study demonstrates a high prevalence of PPD in women who delivered at KKUH. More studies with a more rigorous methodology are warranted.
