i was a health care worker for more than a decade in various capacities, one of those including interaction with pregnant families. it was quite a while ago, this information may be more widely known now, but i had no idea. ill certainly be informing the men i know, 8-10% of new fathers is no small number. a cursory look at the ncbi study suggests the writing is accessible, i have not looked at the other references as im in bed and my eyes are heavy.....

fantastic, thank you so much! i had already forgotten. looking at that ncbi study abstract and first few paragraphs, what jumps out to me is poverty as one of the 3 primary risk factors for men, and a whopping 8-10% of fathers. wow! a quick check with duck AI says ppd in 10-20% of women, so the risk is notable for both parents. i had no idea, thank you for looking for references and reminding me :-)
