About one in 13 anaemic pregnant women enrolled in the study developed severe PPH during childbirth. Maternal obesity, antepartum bleeding in the current pregnancy, co-existing uterine fibroids in pregnancy, delivery gestational age beyond 38 weeks, and caesarean birth in the current pregnancy were factors that were significantly associated with severe PPH in anaemic pregnant women. These findings underscore the importance of increased vigilance during both the antenatal and peripartum periods to identify women with these risk factors for the initiation of timely interventions to prevent severe PPH.
