What are effective treatments for type 2 bipolar disorder while pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tricky...: This is a very tricky situation because most medications are not safe in pregnancy. Depending on severity of symptoms, you may need to reduce to a basic ssri with close monitoring of symptoms. Some docs will also okay ECT for very severe symptoms but this is controversial.
