Those with blood type O may struggle to conceive due to a lower egg count and poorer egg quality, while those with blood group A seem to be more fertile.
Fertility: a small study (544 women) performed did suggest that women with blood type O may be at a higher risk for what's called “diminished ovarian reserve.” More studies are needed in order to better understand this, so if you have blood type O, don't panic just yet.
In situations where a mother has Type O blood, and the baby has A, B, or AB blood, the mother's immune system will recognize the baby's blood as foreign. The mother's immune system will then create special antibodies that attack the ABO group of the baby's blood cells, just like in Rh incompatibility.
Rh incompatibility occurs when the mother's blood type is Rh negative and her fetus' blood type is Rh positive.
If mom passes her O and so does dad, then the child will be OO which is O type blood. Each parent has a 50% chance of passing down the O gene. So each child has a 25% chance of ending up with an O blood type.
So, the progeny formed if both parents are of O blood group is O. The Rh factor can be positive in heterozygous state and also in homozygous state. So, there can be possibility of being both Rh positive and Rh negative.
All blood groups are compatible for marriages; the only concern should be the Rhesus factor antigens which may be a hindrance during blood donation/transfusion.
When the blood of an Rh-positive fetus gets into the bloodstream of an Rh-negative woman, her body will recognize that the Rh-positive blood is not hers. Her body will try to destroy it by making anti-Rh antibodies. These antibodies can cross the placenta and attack the fetus's blood cells.
Rh-negative pregnant women can be exposed to the Rh protein that might cause antibody production in other ways too. These include: blood transfusions with Rh-positive blood. miscarriage.
Over 80% of the population has a positive blood type and can receive O positive blood. That's another reason it's in such high demand. O positive donors who are CMV negative are known as Heroes for Babies at the Red Cross because it is the safest blood for transfusions for immune deficient newborns.
Blood Incompatibility
When the mother has type O blood and the baby has B blood type or A blood type (from the father), research has found that there's a 20 percent incompatibility rate which could result in newborn jaundice or a possible miscarriage.
For example, two O blood type parents can produce a child with only O blood type. Two parents with A blood type can produce a child with either A or O blood types. Two parents with B blood type can produce a child with either B or O blood type.
But it is technically possible for two O-type parents to have a child with A or B blood, and maybe even AB (although this is even more unlikely). In fact, a child can get almost any kind of blood type if you consider the rule-breaking exceptions.
Type Os and Egg Quality: A study conducted by researchers from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine found that women in their 30s with blood type O who were struggling to conceive were twice as likely to have elevated FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) levels as women with type A blood.
A mother who is blood type O can only pass an O allele to her son or daughter. A father who is blood type AB could pass either an A or a B allele to his son or daughter. This couple could have children of either blood type A (O from mother and A from father) or blood type B (O from mother and B from father).
Type O blood does not cause an immune response when it is given to people with type A, type B, or type AB blood. This is why type O blood cells can be given to people of any blood type. People with type O blood are called universal donors. But people with type O can only receive type O blood.
Of the eight main blood types, people with Type O have the lowest risk for heart attacks and blood clots in the legs and lungs. This may be because people with other blood types have higher levels of certain clotting factors, which are proteins that cause blood to coagulate (solidify).
No problem: If you are both the same blood type then it should not be a problem. The problem arises if there is difference in the Rh blood group. For example if you are Rh+ and she is Rh -, she may have a baby with Rh+ type.
Preferred donation methods: double red blood cell, whole blood, and platelet. Types O, A, B and AB positive can receive O+ red cells, and O+ platelets can go to anyone (except childbearing aged females of types O-, A-, B- and AB). Type O+ can ONLY receive types O+ and O-, and only type O+ and O- can receive O+ plasma.
Men with B+ blood group can marry women with O+ blood group.
A baby may have the blood type and Rh factor of either parent, or a combination of both parents. Rh factors follow a common pattern of genetic inheritance. The Rh-positive gene is dominant (stronger) and even when paired with an Rh-negative gene, the positive gene takes over.
Yes, you can. The end result is for both of you to have an O negative child who will be perfectly healthy. “Businesses are suffering.
Yes, an O-positive person can marry an A-positive person.
