What does the presence of the Rh antigen mean?
Rh antigen, which is also called D antigen, indicates if the blood type is positive or negative. The presence of this antigen indicates the patient is Rh positive, the absence of this antigen reflects a blood type of Rh Negative. For example, if a person is O Positive, the Rh antigen is present.
Can your father and mother have Rh positive factor and you be Rh negative?
YES. Maybe both of your parents are half-Rh positive, but not a full-blown Rh positive. Your parents will have 25% chances of getting a Rh negative offspring (Out of 4 children, only 1 become Rh negative) This comes true in our family. Both myself and my husband are Rh positive and our kid (3 years) is Rh negative. My blood group is B+ve, and my husband is A1B+ve and our kid is A1-ve.
Is blood type A positive compatible with O negative?
Yes, blood type A positive can generally receive blood from O negative donors. This is because O negative is known as the universal blood donor type, meaning it can be safely transfused to individuals of other blood types.
What are the potential health implications of having a blood type that is PH negative?
Individuals with a rare blood type known as Rh-negative (PH negative) may face potential health implications during pregnancy, as their immune system can react to a fetus with a different blood type. This can lead to complications such as hemolytic disease of the newborn. Additionally, Rh-negative individuals may require special precautions during blood transfusions to avoid adverse reactions.
What will occur when a person with type B positive blood receives a unit of type A negative blood?
Break it down into blood type (A, B, O) and understand what it means. A has an A protein, B had a B protein, and O has no proteins. There is type AB which includes both A protein and B protein. Now think of it as a proteins are rivals. In your question you mentioned a person with B blood getting A bloods. B and A proteins would fight each other. That would be a "transfusion reaction". The person would become very anemic with high bilirubin, Now let's get into Rh compatibility/incompatibility. The only problem that goes is when Rh proteins (Rh+) enter the Rh negative persons (Rh-). But since the person in the question already has type Rh+ it wouldn't hurt to add blood cells that do not have the Rh protein. But if it was the other way around *Rh- getting Rh+ blood" you would have a reaction.
What blood group is given to someone who is RH negative blood group A?
You would give them A Rh Negative blood or you could also give them O Rh Negative as well. Group O is the universal donor so it can be given to anyone. If the patient is Rh Negative, they can only receive Rh Negative blood. If the patient was Rh positive, they can receive Rh positive or Rh negative.

Can I be ab negative and rh negative?
AB negative is a RH negative blood type.
Why is Rh negative blood so rare in the human population?
Rh negative blood is rare in the human population because it is a genetic trait that is not as common as Rh positive blood. The Rh factor is inherited from our parents, and the gene for Rh negative blood is less prevalent in the general population. This makes Rh negative blood less common compared to Rh positive blood.
Can a black person be rh negative?
The Black Cochin Jewish population has a high percentage of Rh-negative blood but the Rh-negative blood type is uncommon in the Black population in general, which is exactly the same interesting phenomenon as with the Oriental Jews of Israel who have a high percentage of Rh-negative blood, where among the Chinese and Japanese, Rh-negative blood type it is almost nonexistent.
What are rh negative blood groups?
it is a part of blood group. 95% people are Rh +ve, only 5% people are Rh negative.
Can a person with o neg blood give blood to a rh neg person?

Is there blood banks in my area with rh blood?
Rh blood is the most complex genetically of all blood types. It is known that a mother who is pregnant and has Rh- and the father has Rh+, it can cause birth defects in the child. If you are recieving a blood transfusion though this does not apply. You can either recieve Rh- or Rh+. All blood types negative or positive all have Rh blood types in them. The problem you may be experiencing which may take you awhile to recieve blood is that you may have Rh- negative blood which means that you cannot recieve Rh-negative or Rh+negative, and you can only recieve Rh- negative, but yes all blood banks will carry Rh blood, this type of blood though may be more common in different types of people though.
Why cant a woman that is rh negative donate blood?
This not entirely true while an Rh- person can not receive Rh+ blood due to the fact as stated above an Rh+ person can receive Rh- blood because there is no Rh in the blood. This is why O- people are universal donors meaning they are able to give blood to anyone, but can only receive 0- blood.
Why no reaction to blood transfusion first time to Rh negative or Rh positive blood?
because both rh positive ann rh negative the anti boby is less
Is Rh negative the same as a negative?
No, Rh negative refers to the absence of the Rh antigen on red blood cells, while a negative typically describes a lack or absence of something. In the context of blood types, Rh negative is a specific type of blood, while negative refers to a broader concept of lacking a certain quality or characteristic.
