  1. Retained placenta often causes massive bleeding, including incomplete shedding or placental adhesions. These unstable factors can cause massive bleeding.

  2. Cervical lacerations are more common on both sides, presenting a petal like pattern. If the laceration is severe, it can cause massive bleeding to the cervical blood vessels, and in some cases, it can also rupture to the lower segment of the uterus. Moreover, the vaginal laceration on the side wall presents irregular lacerations, and if it affects deep tissues, it can also cause serious bleeding problems.

  3. Mental health is also a major issue. Most postpartum women experience anxiety. Excessive mental tension and emotional anxiety can easily cause instability in the uterus, preventing blood vessels from closing and leading to postpartum bleeding.

  4. The production process is lengthy, and excessive use of sedatives can result in a deep anesthetic effect, causing weak placental contractions and unavoidable bleeding problems.

  If coagulation disorders, placental abruption, amniotic fluid embolism, and other similar problems are found during pregnancy, they can cause continuous postpartum bleeding and make it difficult to stop bleeding. Therefore, if such problems are detected early, they must be taken seriously.
