Are you asking for yourself, or a friend, who has post-partum depression, or is this for a research paper?
You are asking two different questions, as women who birth vaginally can also be given pitocin, so I am not sure if you are wanting to know specifically about any link between certain drugs and PPD, or birthing methods and PPD?
I have not seen any research that links pitocin use during delivery (either by C-section or vaginal) to post-partum depression.
