Sažetak
Paternal Post Natal Depression (PPND), although becoming more prevalent, is still poorly recognised. Unfortunately, its effects
and negative outcomes have not been as widely researched as that of maternal postnatal depression. PPND can affect the fathers
parenting style and lead to a negative effect on their child’s behaviour and social development. Furthermore, depressed fathers may
feel unsupported and this can lead to problems with the marital relationship and be associated with concurrent maternal postnatal
depression. Moreover, support services and interventional therapy come at a cost to the health service and therefore treating PPND
can impact the economy. Identifying the effects PPND has is important as implementing reliable screening measures and better
education may prevent negative outcomes.
