This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of PND and its associated risk factors among Bangladeshi women.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0033291708004455_sec_a002\"><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study was conducted in the Matlab subdistrict of rural Bangladesh. A cohort of 346 women was followed up from late pregnancy to post-partum. Sociodemographic and other related information on risk factors was collected on structured questionnaires by trained interviewers at 34\u201335 weeks of pregnancy at the woman's home. A validated local language (Bangla) version of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS-B) was used to measure depression status at 34\u201335 weeks of pregnancy and at 6\u20138 weeks after delivery.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0033291708004455_sec_a003\" sec-type=\"results\"><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The prevalence of PND was 22% [95% confidence interval (CI) 17.7\u201326.7%] at 6\u20138 weeks post-partum. After adjustment in a multivariate logistic model, PND could be predicted by history of past mental illness [odds ratio (OR) 5.6, 95% CI 1.1\u201327.3], depression in current pregnancy (OR 6.0, 95% CI 3.0\u201312.0), perinatal death (OR 14.1, 95% CI 2.5\u201378.0), poor relationship with mother-in-law (OR 3.6, 95% CI 1.1\u201311.8) and either the husband or the wife leaving home after a domestic quarrel (OR 4.0, 95% CI 1.6\u201310.2).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0033291708004455_sec_a004\" sec-type=\"conclusion\"><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The high prevalence of PND in the study was similar to other countries in the South Asian region.
