dc.description.abstractIntroduction: Hematoma of the lower genital tract is rare especially during pregnancy, and it is potentially fatal if left undiagnosed and untreated. Therefore, early detection and prompt treatment of this condition is essential. Case presentation: A 25-year-old Gravida 2 para 1+0 at 36 weeks and 1 day gestation presented with a rapidly enlarging vulvar hematoma following sexual intercourse. She was managed by examination under anesthesia, and surgical evacuation of the hematoma. This case reports the importance of timely diagnosis and intervention in preventing complications associated with vulva hematomas in pregnancy. Conclusion: Hematoma in pregnancy after sexual intercourse is rare. Early diagnosis and prompt management is essential in preventing complications.
