We report a case of 31-year-old woman presented in Obstetric and Gynecological clinic with signs and symptoms of Placenta previa. One day after admission, patient gave birth by caesarean section to a healthy baby. Yet, two hours later, the patient's condition was deteriorated due to postpartum hemorrhage (PPH).

Blood loss was approximately >1000 ml and was accompanied by clinically apparent shock. Using a conservative treatment such as the application of uterotonic drugs and uterine massage, we managed uterus to be saved.
