Abstract
PPH risk is highest among women with >1 previously affected delivery and in those with a previous severe PPH. Chronic conditions that are known to be risk factors for PPH do not explain the recurrence risks. The recurrence patterns across PPH subtypes may point to shared pathologic mechanisms underlying the varying PPH causes.
