We performed a secondary analysis of the data from Czech epidemiological study on mental health to determine the prevalence of mental disorders among Czech women on maternity or parental leave and to assess the present treatment gap. Any mental disorder was present in 17.6% ( n = 21) of the total sample of 119 women. The treatment gap was present among 76% ( n = 16) of them. In conclusion, most women on maternity or parental leave facing a mental disorder were not receiving treatment. The present study is the first of its kind in the region of Central and Eastern Europe.
