Abstract: Postpartum depression (PPD) is a serious public health concern and this condition has become more common in routine obstetric care, while data are now more readily available to assist researchers in identifying patient characteristics that may be associated with increased risk of PPD. Subjects of this study were women who gave birth between January 2012-December 2013, at Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics in Prishtina, 385 women, hospitalized inpatients prospectively fulfilled the selection criteria and completed self-reporting questionnaires 2-3 days after childbirth using Adult Self Report/Adult Behavior Checklist (ASR/ABCL, 2003). Inpatients characteristics included the method of delivery mode and socio demographic data. Results showed that prevalence of depression was 17.6 % in the sample of 385 subjects with mean age 28, 85, 6, years of education 112, 8, mostly living in rural area 53, 9 %, and underwent caesarean section delivery in 58, 3 % of cases. Our findings showed significant differences on PPD because of delivery mode, experienced stress during pregnancy and place of living within family (extending & nuclear family) as a risk factor for PPD.
