Abstract

Prevalence of intimate partner violence (IPV) during pregnancy is estimated to be 4%-8%. Women with mental health difficulties are at increased risk for IPV during the perinatal period. Prevalence of IPV is high among women with eating disorders (ED); however, prevalence of IPV during the perinatal period among women with ED is unknown.
