Abstract

Perinatal mental illness, obesity, and diabetes mellitus are common complications of the perinatal period that are becoming ever more prevalent and frequently co-occur. This review seeks to examine the prevalence of comorbid obesity/diabetes (termed "diabesity") and mental illness in the perinatal period and current understandings of the psychosocial and pathophysiological relationships between these diseases. We will present current guidelines for screening and make recommendations for adaptations of mental health treatment in patients with this comorbidity. Finally, we present future directions for research and clinical intervention.
