Men Experience Birth Trauma Too: What You Need To Know

    1 in 10 men experience symptoms of anxiety and depression in the first six months after the birth of a baby, and the number of men who become depressed in the first year after becoming a dad is double that of the general population.

    The impact of a traumatic birth for fathers can go unrecognised and unresolved due to a lack of understanding of what birth trauma actually looks like and the pressure many men feel to present as a rock for their family.

    This 4 page fact sheet supports your patients to understand how birth trauma impacts men, so they may acknowledge their experience, understand potential causes, recognise signs and symptoms, be aware of underlying ongoing themes, as well as options for support.
