- Abstract
Objectives: evaluating the presence of anxiety and depression in pregnancy and characterizing the profile of pregnant women. Method: a quantitative, epidemiological, descriptive, cross-sectional and correlational study conducted in public health units in a city in the southern Minas Gerais, Brazil with 209 pregnant women. Data collection occurred from January to May 2013 and there were used the Anxiety and Depression Hospital Scale and the characterization form. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee, protocol 113.129. Results: anxiety was more frequent than depression and pregnant women had few risk factors for the occurrence of these disorders in pregnancy, such as: low/middle education, low family income, history of complications in previous pregnancies and unplanned pregnancies. Conclusion: preventive initiatives to the occurrence of anxiety and depression in pregnancy, such as monitoring of mental health and its screening during the prenatal are required.
