Depression and anxiety disorders are more common in women than in men, and female reproductive hormones, as well as psychosocial factors, are likely involved. The courses of these disorders are often different in women and men as well, and may be related to different reproductive events across the lifespan. Women often suffer worsening of their symptoms premenstrually, during pregnancy or the
postpartum period, and during perimenopause when hormone levels can be in varying degrees of flux.
