Abstract
Globally more than 550 women die per year from childbirth-related causes. Around 9% of women suffer from postpartum post-traumatic stress disorder after childbirth. Postpartum bipolar disorder is humor episodes such as mania, hypomania or depression, which start throughout pregnancy or in few weeks after child bearing. Fifty percent (50%) worldwide estimation of motherly deaths arise in sub-Saharan Africa region alone. Depression is a devastating temperament and mental sickness touching around 13% of postpartum mothers worldwide. The occurrence of 25%-60% of depression is typical of low- and middle-income countries. A combined prevalence of 14.4% of teenage deliveries was revealed in Cameroon where there is unsatisfactory information on the risk factors of motherly mortality and mother care after childbirth. In hinterland local therapists especially in Bororo and Pygmies communities, have developed indigenous strategies in the treatment of certain cases of abnormal labor and psychiatric postpartum sicknesses. Accordingly this study aimed to identify principally amongst anti-obesity and antidiabetic plants used in Cameroon, those with efficient effect on labor and psychiatric mother care after delivery. To achieve this objective the search strategy was performed to identification these plants using the following research engines in Google, Google Scholar and PubMed: 1) Properties oxytocic of a given diabetic or anti-obesity plant name 2) A given diabetic or anti-obesity plant name with capacity to control labor 3) Anti-psychiatric postpartum disease properties of a given diabetic or anti-obesity plant name. Twenty plants used in the treatment of difficult labor and psychiatric postpartum treatment in Cameroon were recorded. Only Daturastramonium and Amblygonocarpusandongensis were respectively poisonous and slightly toxic. Mucunapruriens, Peperomiapellucida, Momordicacharantia and Xylopiaaethiopica are more effective. Nevertheless, preventive measures such as selection of safe herbal medications, avoid psychiatric postpartum diseases symptoms, adequate dosages and their stabilization, duration of treatment, good sanitary herbal medicines preparation, and conservation, must be determined and rigorously respected.
