#Postpartum #hemorrhage (PPH) is classified based on when the bleeding occurs after delivery:

Primary (or early) PPH:
➤ Occurs within the first 24 hours after birth.
➤ Most commonly due to uterine atony, trauma, retained placenta, or coagulation issues.

Secondary (or late) PPH:
➤ Occurs after 24 hours and up to 6 weeks postpartum.
➤ Often caused by retained products of conception, infection (endometritis), or subinvolution of the uterus.
