Postpartum cardiomyopathy, also known as peripartum cardiomyopathy, is one of the rare causes of stroke in young females. Postpartum cardiomyopathy is defined as new- onset heart failure between the last month of pregnancy and 5 months post-delivery with no determinable cause. Risk factors include multiparity, advanced maternal age, multiple pregnancies, pre-eclampsia, chronic hypertension, smoking, alcoholism, malnutrition, and long- term tocolysis.
