What Is Reproductive Psychiatry?

Reproductive Psychiatry focuses on the unique emotional and biological changes that occur during the reproductive stages of life—from preconception to postpartum and through menopause. At Iroko Psychiatry, our clinicians provide specialized, evidence-based evaluation and treatment for women facing mood or anxiety changes related to hormonal transitions.

We understand that these experiences can affect not only mental health but also relationships, identity, and overall wellbeing. Whether in-person or via telepsychiatry, our care is designed to be flexible, safe, and centered around you.

Who is it for?

Reproductive psychiatry may be beneficial for individuals experiencing:

  • Perinatal or Postpartum Depression
  • Anxiety or Panic During Pregnancy or After Birth
  • Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)
  • Perimenopausal Mood Changes
  • Pregnancy Loss or Infertility-Related Distress
  • Postpartum OCD or Intrusive Thoughts
  • Medication management during pregnancy or breastfeeding

Not all reproductive-related mood changes require medication. Some may benefit from psychotherapy alone or a combined approach. Our clinicians tailor every treatment plan to balance emotional, physical, and hormonal health, ensuring safety and comfort throughout your care journey.

Our Approach

At Iroko Psychiatry, we combine medical expertise, compassionate listening, and holistic care. Your clinician will perform a comprehensive evaluation—reviewing your psychiatric and reproductive history, hormonal changes, and any past treatments—to design an individualized plan.

Our approach integrates psychotherapy, medication when appropriate, lifestyle interventions, and collaboration with your OB-GYN or primary care provider. We prioritize safety, especially during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and adjust treatment as your needs evolve.
