Introduction: Postpartum depression is one of the most common mood disorders after childbirth, which not only has negative effects on the child's growth and marital life, but also affects the quality of life and health of mothers. Therefore, this research was conducted with the aim of determining the relationship between women's quality of life and postpartum depression.
Methodology: This descriptive and analytical study was conducted on 200 mothers who referred to health centers in Torbat Heydarieh city in 2016 as available sampling in the 6th week after delivery. Mothers were divided into depressed and non-depressed groups based on the Edinburgh scale. Then sf36 questionnaire was completed for two groups. Data were analyzed using personal information questionnaire, Edinburgh depression questionnaire and sf36 quality of life questionnaire using descriptive indices and independent t-test using version 22 software.
Findings: Statistically significant differences were found in all aspects of the quality of life of non-depressed and depressed women after childbirth. P<0.05
Conclusion: Postpartum depression is associated with a decrease in women's quality of life. Therefore, it is essential that with early identification of mental and psychological disorders of mothers and their prevention, the mental health of mothers and the quality of their life after childbirth can be improved
