There is a portal vein connection between the anterior pituitary gland and the hypothalamus, which receives neuropeptide substances secreted by the hypothalamus. Postpartum hemorrhage can easily cause thrombosis in these portal veins, eventually leading to necrosis of the anterior pituitary gland, and various levels of hormonal hormones are greatly reduced. As a result, thyroid, adrenal cortex, ovarian and other functions are impaired, and even the aforementioned symptoms appear It is a serious disease. It is important to prevent postpartum hemorrhage.
