E. Canton & J. Ingegnieros. Locura del embarazo (Folie gravidiqne). Buenos. Aires. Br. 1903

Dr. E. Nicoulau, in No. 2 Annales Medico-Psychologiques, 1906, sets out the contents of the pamphlet by prof. E. Canto`a, and Dr J. Ingegnieros in Buenos Aires. The authors point out the serious importance for a woman of the function of childbearing in the development of psychosis. All stages of this function can give rise to the development of various forms of mental disorder that make up the general group of "PUEU-.moral psychosis", this includes, therefore, the insanity of pregnant women, postpartum women, women in labor and breastfeeding, as well as menstrual insanity, since menstruation can be examined like childbirth in miniature.
