Background summary
In the Netherlands, approximately 1.3% of the population between 18 and 65 have
the diagnose bipolar disorder (de Graaf, 2011). For young adults of
childbearing age, the diagnose can affect the pregnancy wish. For women, play
both the biological and psychological factors a role (Yonkers, 2004). The way
women experience the decision-making process about pregnancy and family
planning is not known from the literature. It could be important for the
treatment and support during this process to understand the thoughts and
considerations of women about family planning and prior to any pregnancy.
