* Presence of Other Mental or Neurologic  Conditions- OCD often occurs in people who have other          anxiety disorders          ,          depression          ,          Tourette syndrome          ,          attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)          ,         substance abuse          ,         eating disorders          , and certain personality disorders.
Common risk factors in the development of [disease name] may be occupational, environmental, genetic, and viral.


PANDAS, which refers to Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders associated with Streptococcal Infections, is a term that refers to a group of children who have OCD and/or a tic disorder, which gets worse or is related to          strep throat          . Researchers are studying what causes this, for example, antibodies in the body may interact with the brain.

Overview

Risk factors for obsessive compulsive disorder include genetic predisposition, a variety of genetic factors, environmental factors, and brain structure and function.

Risk Factors

Genetic Predisposition

  • Research suggests that the condition tends to run in families. A person who has OCD has a 25% chance of having a blood relative who has it. One study found that children inherit OCD symptoms in 45%-60% of cases, while adults inherit the symptoms in 27%-47% of cases.[1]
  • People with first-degree relatives who have OCD, especially if the first-degree relative developed OCD as a child or teen, are at a higher risk for OCD.

Genetic Factors

  • Pregnancy or post-partum period: OCD symptoms may worsen during, and immediately after pregnancy. In this case, fluctuating hormones can trigger symptoms. Postpartum OCD is characterized by disturbing thoughts and compulsions regarding the baby’s well-being.

Environment

  • Experiencing childhood physical or sexual abuse.[1]
  • Experiencing a stressful event (major life changes, such as loss of a loved one, divorce, relationship difficulties, problems in school, or abuse).
  • Experiencing a traumatic event.

Brain Structure and Functioning

  • Experiencing childhood behavioral inhibition.[1]
  • Experiencing higher negative emotionality.
