Material and Method: This was a retrospective comparative study. The study material included data retrieved from the medical records of patients hospitalized in the Teaching Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of Professor Or\u0142owski Hospital in Warsaw, in the years 2010\u20132017. The EPDS data of 604 patients were analyzed. The study group included 75 women who obtained at least 12 points in the EPDS and the control group was made up of 75 women who obtained no more than 5 points in the EPDS. Results: The women in whom we noted an increased risk of developing mood disorders had blood loss &gt;1000 mL and had a significantly longer stage II and III of labor than the control group. Other risk factors were cesarean section, vaginal delivery with the curettage of the uterine cavity, slightly lower APGAR scores (0.4 pts), and lower birth weight (approximately 350 g) of the child. Women at a low risk of postpartum mood disorders more commonly underwent episiotomy during delivery (76%). Conclusions: Increased supervision and support should be offered to women who experienced the above-mentioned risk factors.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph17238726","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,24]],"date-time":"2020-11-24T09:06:28Z","timestamp":1606208788000},"page":"8726","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Peripartum Predictors of the Risk of Postpartum Depressive Disorder: Results of a Case-Control Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8262-4380","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kornelia","family":"Zar\u0119ba","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"First Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Center of Postgraduate Medical Education, 01-813 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9670-9580","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jolanta","family":"Banasiewicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Psychology and Medical Communication, Medical University of Warsaw, 02-091 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hanna","family":"Rozenek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Psychology and Medical Communication, Medical University of Warsaw, 02-091 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stanis\u0142aw","family":"W\u00f3jtowicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Psychology and Medical Communication, Medical University of Warsaw, 02-091 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6094-2273","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Grzegorz","family":"Jakiel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"First Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Center of Postgraduate Medical Education, 01-813 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"129","article-title":"Factors associated with early postpartum maternity blues and depression tendency among Japanese mothers with full-term healthy infants","volume":"76","author":"Takahashi","year":"2014","journal-title":"Nagoya J.
