Voice 1: The British researchers continued to study the families for a longer time. When the babies were three and a half years old, researchers could still see the effects of depressed fathers. Each of the fathers had suffered signs of depression when their baby was two months old. These children had twice as many emotional and behavioral problems as children of fathers who were not depressed.
声音1：英国研究人员继续对这些家庭进行了更长时间的研究。这些婴儿三岁半时，研究人员仍可以看到抑郁父亲的影响。每名父亲在孩子两个月大时都出现了抑郁症状。这些孩子的情绪和行为问题是那些父亲不抑郁的孩子的两倍。
Voice 2: These are important results. And researchers hope that these studies will help to inform the public about postpartum depression in men.
声音2：这些都是重要的结果。研究人员希望这些研究将有助于让公众了解男性产后抑郁症。
Voice 1: After the birth of a baby, doctors or health care workers may make an effort to make sure that the new mother is happy and healthy. Some health care workers are trained to look for signs of postpartum depression in mothers. They try to help the new mother find support. But there is rarely a support system for fathers. Experts say that many cases of postpartum depression in fathers go unrecognized.
声音1：婴儿出生后，医生或医护人员可能会努力确保新妈妈快乐健康。一些卫生保健工作者接受培训，以寻找母亲产后抑郁症的迹象。他们试图帮助新妈妈找到支持。但很少有为父亲提供支持的系统。专家表示，许多父亲产后抑郁症的病例没有被发现。
Voice 2: Clearly, men do not go through the same physical and mental changes as women at the time of birth. A new mother's physical body is changing. Doctors believe these changes may affect her brain chemical levels. These chemical changes may cause depression. But a new father does not experience these clear physical changes. So what causes postpartum depression in new fathers?
声音2：很明显，在孩子出生时，男性不会经历与女性相同的生理和心理变化。新妈妈的身体正在发生变化。医生认为这些变化可能会影响她大脑中化学物质的水平。这些化学变化可能会导致抑郁症。但新爸爸不会经历这些明显的身体变化。那是什么原因导致新爸爸患上产后抑郁症呢？
Voice 1: Well, the simple answer is that doctors and researchers do not know. One research study suggests that some hormone levels in a father's body also change around the time of birth. Some experts suggest that the emotional pressures of new responsibilities may be difficult for a new father.
声音1：答案很简单，医生和研究人员都不知道。一项研究表明，父亲体内的某些荷尔蒙水平在孩子出生前后也会发生变化。一些专家认为，新责任带来的情感压力对新爸爸来说可能很难承受。
