a doctor had short post mortem depression from giving birth. She never had a single incident of this in her life, but she is now prohibited from getting insurance - every carrier has declined her because of this single short incident that was due to giving birth.

Are you saying she killed her baby? Because "post mortem" means after death.

many women hightech consultants are not able to get individual insurance from the major providers due to a gender specific condition such as post-mortem depression from giving birth.

How did you come to the conclusion that "post mortem" depression is exclusive to women? Believe it or not, many men get post mortem depression after the death of a spouse. Or are you talking about women who abort their babies? One of the significant risks is post mortem depression, and doctors should make this clear before performing such an elective procedure.
