Causes[1][2]
- The exact cause of placental abruption may be hard to determine, But some factors may raise a woman's risk for it:
- History of placental abruption in a previous pregnancy
- Long-term high blood pressure
- Sudden high blood pressure in pregnant women who had normal blood pressure in the past
- Heart disease
- Smoking
- drugs like Alcohol or cocaine use
- twins pregnancy or more
- Being older than 35
- Direct causes are rare, but include:
- Injury to the belly area (abdomen) from a fall, hit to the abdomen, or automobile accident
