Surgical control of haemorrhage

This is a 100% effect procedure for stopping postpartum hemorrhage with out resorting to hysterectomy which has been around for about 10 years. When I asked my doctor why they had not tried it I expected them to say he did not know of it. He said it's not a procedure that we use! So if they HAD decided to use this procedure, I may be carrying our third child by now! (2001)
