Why would MgSO4 be a cause of pp hemorrhage?
MgSO4 is a vasodilator, it will cause veins to remain unconstricted, the opposite of what we need in the uterus after delivery.
Why would the overuse of oxytotic meds such as pitocin cause pp hemorrhage?
excessive use of Pitocin during labor sets a woman up for immediate postpartum uterine atony—with sometimes unacceptable amounts of blood loss in accompaniment.
