We propose that puerperal psychosis might occur in late post-partum period also i.e. after 4 weeks of delivery. Increased awareness on post-partum issues in lower socio-econo-mic groups can significantly improve the outcome of such patients.</p> <p><strong>Key words:</strong>  Post-partum psychosis, Early Manage-ment.</p> <p> </p>}, number={3}, journal={Annals of King Edward Medical University}, author={Hashmi, Ali Madeeh and Malik, Asad Khizar}, year={2012}, month={Feb.}, pages={277} }
