“…In addition to its relationship with HPA axis alterations, a history of ACEs has been associated in multiple studies with increased risk for depression during the prenatal period ( 183 – 188 ). In one large Swedish study, women reporting 5 or more ACEs had a 4.2-fold increased risk of prenatal depression ( 189 ).…”

The aim of this narrative review is to consolidate knowledge on the role of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in depression pathophysiology at different reproductive stages across the female lifespan. Despite growing evidence about the impact of gonadal hormones on mood disorders, no previous review has examined the interaction between such hormonal changes and the HPA axis within the context of depressive disorders in women. We will focus on HPA axis function in depressive disorders at different reproductive stages including the menstrual cycle (e.g., premenstrual dysphoric disorder [PMDD]), perinatally (e.g., postpartum depression), and in perimenopausal depression. Each of these reproductive stages is characterized by vast physiological changes and presents major neuroendocrine reorganization. The HPA axis is one of the main targets of such functional alterations, and with its key role in stress response, it is an etiological factor in vulnerable windows for depression across the female lifespan. We begin with an overview of the HPA axis and a brief summary of techniques for measuring HPA axis parameters. We then describe the hormonal milieu of each of these key reproductive stages, and integrate information about HPA axis function in depression across these reproductive stages, describing similarities and differences. The role of a history of stress and trauma exposure as a contributor to female depression in the context of HPA axis involvement across the reproductive stages is also presented. This review advances the pursuit of understanding common biological mechanisms across depressive disorders among women. Our overarching goal is to identify unmet needs in characterizing stress-related markers of depression in women in the context of hormonal changes across the lifespan, and to support future research in women’s mental health as it pertains to pathophysiology, early diagnosis, and treatment targets.

De nombreuses femmes utilisent des produits psychotropes pendant la grossesse. Ces produits qui ont des conséquences sur le développement du fœtus et de l’enfant sont peu recherchés dans l’accompagnement des femmes enceintes. Pourtant, ils posent de nombreux problèmes pour la santé mentale des mères, l’équilibre des interactions mère-enfant et le devenir des enfants. Cette revue de la littérature montre que ces problèmes sont sous-estimés et sous-traités. Après l’étude de l’impact des principaux produits, nous présentons les facteurs de risque pour les addictions maternelles ainsi que des programmes spécifiques validés dans l’accompagnement de la parentalité des femmes addictes.
