Essential Thrombocytosis (ET) is a myeloproliferative disorder of platelet line, which causes thrombosis and hemorrhage and this risk increases in pregnancy for both fetus and mother. We report a case of ET in which pregnancy outcome was good but patient had secondary postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). Increase monitoring and early recourse to intervention and treatment is required in these patients.
