Social Support, Delivery Mode, and Cultural Factors in Twin Parents' Postpartum Depression: A Response to Egsgaard et al.

ABSTRACT Background Egsgaard et al. (2024) highlight the temporal patterns of postpartum depression (PPD) risk in twin parents versus singleton parents. However, additional factors such as social support systems, delivery mode, and cultural influences require exploration. Purpose To discuss the role of structured postpartum care, cesarean sections, and mother‐infant bonding in moderating PPD risk, especially within cultural contexts. Conclusion These factors may explain the gender‐specific temporal patterns observed by Egsgaard et al. Future research should integrate sociocultural and clinical variables to inform interventions for twin parents at risk of PPD.
