PPH occurs in approximately 1-5% of deliveries in the United States and accounts for 20-25% of maternal deaths worldwide. PPH is difficult to predict, but classically, risk factors for PPH- uterine atony, abruption, retained tissue, lacerations, infection, obesity, preeclampsia, magnesium
The study will have a double-blind design and will include 90 patients planned for elective cesarean delivery aged 18-45 years with an ASA score of I-II who will be randomized by sealed tender and will be divided into 3 groups with 30 patients each. The exclusion criteria will be as follows:
This randomized, controlled, double blind study will be conducted on women with preeclampsia with singleton pregnancy undergoing elective cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. Immediately, after spinal anesthesia administration, patients will receive either 250 mL colloid over 5 minutes
The study population consisted of 2 groups; (1) the hyperemesis gravidarum group, consist of 25 pregnant women who developed dehydration due to HG between 6 and 13 gestational weeks and between 18 and 35 years (2) the normal pregnancy group, consisting of 25 pregnant women.

Background Some maternal blood loss normally occurs at the time of vaginal delivery. The best estimates indicate that a loss of approximately 500 mL is average, with a range of about 250-700 mL.[1,2] Some of this bleeding arises from birth canal lacerations or surgical incisions (i.e., episiotomy),

Following the approval of the Baskent University Ethics Committee (KA08/48) and the written informed consents of the patients, 93 pregnant women above 18 years of age without fetal distress/anomaly (gestational pregnancy age ≥ 36 weeks, height ≥ 155 cm, weight ≤110 kg, and fetal weight ≥ 2500 g) and
Ephedrine, a long time was considered the safest drug for both mother and fetus during the treatment of hypotension in Caesarean section. However, recent evidence shows that contrary to what was thought, ephedrine appears to increase fetal metabolism, decreasing the pH and excess base.

In industrialized and developing countries, iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) are highly prevalent in pregnant women. ID and IDA, in pregnant women as a consequence of an increased iron requirement, due to enhanced blood volume and development of fetal-placenta unit, represent a
