title: The Couvade Syndrome: The biological, psychological, and social impact of pregnancy on the expectant father.
abstract: The Couvade syndrome describes the various physical symptoms found in expectant fathers. In this descriptive study, we have attempted to determine the extent to which this syndrome occurs among expectant fathers in Quebec, identify certain risk factors, and observe the repercussions of pregnancy on the social and family behaviour of the expectant father, as well as on the use of health care services.
