Abstract
During my post-graduate year two (PGY2) psychiatry specialty residency, I developed an interest in women's mental health. For a number of reasons, I identified this patient population as an area that I wanted to focus my efforts in researching, understanding and treating. Specifically, mental illness during pregnancy surfaced as a special population that needed the care of a pharmacist. Our detail-oriented approach and evidence-based rationale is of utmost importance to these women and their children. I arrived at my PGY2 residency eager to focus on women and children after completing my PGY1 residency at a Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Though female veteran medical care was a priority, the majority of my specific experiences had been in a male population. For that reason I jumped at the opportunities to learn more about women's mental health issues.
