Hematometra following caesarean section is rare. We present here a case of 23-year-old woman who had undergone caesarean section for placenta previa. She presented with cryptomenorrhoea and hematometra after 5 months of caesarean delivery owing to adhesions in the vagina. The hematometra was drained vaginally.
