Embolization is an effective therapeutic strategy for PPH with the advantages of being fast, repeatable, and the possibility of fertility preservation. A young 30 year old female P2L2 presented to our department with secondary postpartum haemorrhage initially managed conservatively followed by coil embolization and finally hysterectomy after the failure of conservative and embolization procedure.
