How Zoloft Helped Her Thrive During Pregnancy and Postpartum

Early in her pregnancy, she made the decision to start a very low dose of Zoloft. Despite trying everything—daily walks, balanced nutrition, hydration, supplements, and extensive testing with a holistic doctor—nothing was easing her overwhelming depression and anxiety, intensified by pregnancy hormones.

Once she began the medication, everything changed. She felt more like herself: a happier, more present woman, wife, and mother. With no side effects or complications, she continued Zoloft while breastfeeding. A brief wave of anxiety after birth led to a small dose increase, which helped stabilize her, and by seven weeks postpartum, she and her doctor successfully began tapering.

For her, Zoloft was more than just medication—it was a turning point in her health and well-being.
