Thrombocytopenia, defined as blood platelet count below 150.000/μL is the second leading cause of blood disorders in pregnancy after anemia. It complicates 7 to 10% of all pregnancies. Gestational thrombocytopenia explains 70-80% of all cases of thrombocytopenia in pregnancy. Hypertensive disorders account for approximately 20% and immune thrombocytopenic purpura for about 3-4%. Other etiologies are considered rare in pregnancy.Methods: The study was conducted in the tertiary institute over a period of one year, from January 2016 to December 2016. The samples of blood were collected from the Antenatal out-patient department and from indoor patients of the department of gynecology and obstetrics of the J.K. Hospital, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh India.Results: Maximum number of patients had moderate degree of anemia around 58%. Most of the cases presented during 30-34 wee...
