“…Evidence suggests that victims of IPV carry a higher burden of mental health problems, in particular CMD, as compared to those who have not experienced IPV (Howard et al, 2014;Howard et al, 2010;Hughes et al, 2012). A recent systematic review including 41 studies, reported a higher risk of experiencing IPV in women with depressive disorders (OR ¼ 2.77; 95% CI ¼ 1.96-3.92), anxiety disorders (OR ¼ 4.08; 95% CI ¼ 2.39-6.97), and PTSD (OR ¼ 7.34; 95% CI ¼ 4.50-11.98), as compared to women without mental disorders (Trevillion, Oram, Feder, & Howard, 2012).…”

Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a global health problem of epidemic proportions, affecting a third of women across the globe and as many as 60% in heavily affected regions of Africa. There is strong evidence that risk of IPV is heightened in HIV-infected women, and emerging evidence linking experiencing IPV and/or HIV to a higher likelihood of experiencing mental health problems. This triple burden makes women in Africa, living in the epicentre of HIV, all the more vulnerable. In this synthesis, this study reviewed literature pertaining to the overlap of IPV, HIV, and mental health problems. It presents a series of geographical maps illustrating the heavy burden of IPV and HIV globally, and how these coincide with a growing prevalence of mental health problems in Africa. Furthermore, it presents evidence on: the association between IPV and HIV, shared risk factors, and health consequences. This synthesis sheds light on the fact that $30% of women are affected by these three burdens concurrently, and the need for intervention is essential. Promising large scale interventions which have taken place in Africa are described, and evidence is presented in support of integrated versus targeted screening. ARTICLE HISTORY

This is the accepted version of the paper.This version of the publication may differ from the final published version. Permanent repository link AbstractBackground: Previous reviews have provided preliminary insights into risk factors and possible prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) postpartum with no attempt to examine prenatal PTSD. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of PTSD during pregnancy and after birth, and the course of PTSD over this time.Methods: PsychINFO, PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science were searched using PTSD terms crossed with perinatal terms. Studies were included if they reported the prevalence of PTSD during pregnancy or after birth using a diagnostic measure. Limitations: Limitations include use of stringent diagnostic criteria, wide variability of PTSD rates, and inadequacy of studies on prenatal PTSD measured in three trimesters.Conclusions: PTSD is prevalent during pregnancy and after birth and may increase postpartum if not identified and treated. Assessment and treatment in maternity services is recommended.

“…Perinatal depression and anxiety are common mental health disorders in pregnancy and the first 12 months post-birth (Howard et al 2014;Byatt et al 2013). Perinatal depression affects between 10 and 17% of women (Austin 2014) and perinatal anxiety between 13 and 20% of women (Austin 2014;Austin et al 2017).…”
