The most common symptoms were bleedings ( 91.67% ). The duration of amenorrhea were between 16-19 weeks in 30.56% of the patients. There were 66.67% of the patients with large-for-date uterine size and 13.89% of the patients had theca lutein cysts. One half of the patients were diagnosed by ultrasonography.
