Prevalence of Common Mental Disorders in Indonesian Pregnant Women on Pandemic Situation and its Influencing Factors

Aims: Common mental disorders increase the risk of pregnancy, and the number is relatively high in economically developing nations. This study aimed to measure the prevalence of common mental disorders and assess the associated risk factors for common mental disorders in a pandemic situation in Indonesia. Instrument & Methods: A cross-sectional study involving ۱,۵۴۳ subjects in Banyumas-District, Central Java, Indonesia, recruited from January to August ۲۰۲۲. Social support, marital satisfaction, COVID-۱۹ diagnosis, and pregnancy characteristics were the main risk factors measured. Data were collected using a standardized online questionnaire distributed through snowball sampling. Multiple logistic regression was applied to estimate the risk of having common mental disorders in gravid individuals. Findings: The prevalence of common mental disorders was ۱۷.۵%, with a higher case of common mental disorders found in pregnant women who had low social support, poor marital satisfaction, COVID-۱۹ survivors, primigravida, and early pregnancy. After the bivariate analysis, family income, type of family, number of pregnancies, gestational age, and social and marital satisfaction were analyzed in the multivariate test. In the final model, poor relationship quality was the highest risk factor for having common mental disorders in the subjects (OR=۵.۱۱; ۹۵%CI=۳.۳۳-۷.۸۳; p<۰.۰۰۱). Conclusion: The number of common mental disorders in Indonesian pregnant women is relatively high. Poor relationship quality is the highest risk factor for having common mental disorders. Addressing social and educational determinants is vital for enhancing maternal mental health.
