Summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn how war affects reproductive decisions and perinatal mental health in Ukrainian women.

The main questions it aims to answer are: (1) how are wartime stress and trauma related to women's decisions about pregnancy and childbirth?; (2) what mental health symptoms and psychological difficulties are experienced during the perinatal period under wartime conditions? (3) which demographic, obstetric, and psychological factors are linked to poorer mental health and childbirth experiences?

Researchers will survey at least 300 women.

Participants will: (1) complete questionnaires about their mental health and psychological well-being; (2) answer questions about their reproductive choices, pregnancy, and/or childbirth experiences; (3) report on the impact of war, social support, maternal care, and postpartum trauma; (4) provide demographic and obstetric information.

The findings will be used to develop an evidence-based model of the factors influencing reproductive behavior and perinatal mental health during war.
