    Pregnancy is a physiological and psychological process that women go through, becoming a sensitive point for developing mental pathologies such as anxiety and depression in the prenatal stage, associated with related causative risk factors. Objective: To determine the prevalence of anxiety and depression levels (physiological or pathological) in pregnant women to promote education during the prenatal stage. Methods: A systematic search was conducted in electronic databases such as PubMed, Scielo, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and Dialnet, following PRISMA guidelines. Observational studies published between 2019 and 2024 that investigated anxiety and depression as physiological or pathological changes in pregnancy were included. Results: The symptoms of anxiety and depression are related to their origin, whether physiological or pathological, leading to various complications for the dyad that pose a life-threatening risk, and are also associated with risk factors and the history of the pregnant woman's pathologies. Conclusion: The bibliographic review conducted will support the updating and promotion of knowledge about mental disorders that silently affect pregnant women, caused by various risk factors that further exacerbate adverse effects, making depression and anxiety become a proper pathology according to the CIE-10.
