The estimated incidence ranges from 0.04 per 100,000 in women aged 20-34years to 0.25 per 100,000 in those aged 35-39years. The management of pregnant patient with PV may be problematic; less than 50 pregnancies have been reported so far in PV. Material and methods: We hereby describe four pregnancies in a woman where PV was diagnosed in the fourth pregnancy. Aspirin and phlebotomy were used to maintain cell count in normal range and to avoid thrombotic complications. Conclusion: Pregnancy in PV appears to be associated with significantly better outcome with tailor-made management for achieving good hematocrit control, low-dose aspirin and good maternal and fetal surveillance.
