korday: I hope your wife received Rhogam after the miscarriage. Indirect Coombs test being negative means there is no antibodies detected and even when it is positive it does not mean the woman is sensitized already because there are a lot of things that could make indirect coombs test positive including sensitization.

There's a reason we have rhogam injections for rhesus negative women. Whether after a first miscarriage/abortion, bleeding while pregnant/ or even after delivery, you give rhogam. In this day and age, the emphasis shouldn't be on rhesus affecting the choice of a life partner, but on letting all rh negative women know about the rhogam injections and when to have it Firstly, everyone has to know their blood group. 5 Likes |

In addition, as a Rh- girl, please never think of an abortion if you happen to get pregnant out of wedlock. You'll never have a child again. (Caveat: Unless you find a Rh- man to marry). And if and when you do keep the pregnancy (this include Rh- married women), a CS is the best (or rather only) option if you intend to have other kids in the future.

I'd like to commend your effort in writing such a lengthy and educative post. You also were very plain in your discuss, making it easy for most people to comprehend. However, the post lacked medical depth and specificity. NB: Your discuss on Rhesus (Rh) factor is without specificity as to which of the Rhesus factors. There are 5 Rhesus factors amongst over 50 which are important to us. They are; 1. Rh D 2. Rh C 3. Rh c 4. Rh E 5. Rh e Op, I believe the very Rhesus factor you have discussed is Rhesus factor D (Rh 'D'). Secondly, inheritance of the Rhesus factor is not solely from the father. The offspring can inherit it from either parents whether (+) or (-) Take note and cheers! 5 Likes |

Aquariann: I was going to quote you when I saw your mention. C-Sec also can lead to sensitization so it's not actually a safer option. Whether CS or vaginal delivery, the placenta must be removed. There will be some exposure either way.. |

Re: Rhesus Factor Incompatibility, One Of The Causes Of Miscarriage by drpompay(m): 6:41pm On Aug 27, 2017 |
Interesting, but OP some of the information u gave are obviously wrong 1) that the father is Rh + does not mean d child must be Rh +. Don't forget that the genetic makeup could be +/- or +/+, hence we advice that the rhesus status of d father and child be checked esp at birth b4 giving Rhogam 2) Miscarriage is one of d least complications of Rh isoimmunization, the common ones are jaundice, kernicterus, Erthroblastosis fetalis and hydrops. 3) Rh isoimmunization is hardly complicated by recurrent miscarriages 4) the common causes of recurrent miscarriages are Genetic factors Chromosomal anomalies Cervical incompetence Uterine anomaly Luteal phase deficiency Drug misuse/abuse Diabetes PCOS Antiphospholipid syndrome Connective tissue diseases etc Plz though Rhesus isoimmunization is a big problem, its complications are preventable and treatable, and it is very uncommon among blacks. Use of Rhogam is to prevent it and IT HARDLY CAUSES RECURRENT MISCARRIAGES 3 Likes 1 Share |

ChelseaDr: Transfusion of Rh + blood to a Rh - patient is absolutely outside the protocol of Blood transfusion medicine. Even the WHO upholds this. Rh + blood MUST NEVER be indicated for a Rh - patient regardless of the emergency situation sir. In the case of a female patient, this would be very devastating. If she survives the TR, she will never be able to have children if she has not hit menopause. Because, she has been sensitized in vivo. Any child conceive will suffer HDN. However, if the patient is a Rh - post menopausal female and in critical need of transfusion, haven exhausted all options to get Rh - blood, Rh + blood may be given with loads of TR suppressants. This is not an ideal practice but may be done in a daring emergency situation with the effect clearly explained to family relative(s) who will sign the consent form. Cheers! 2 Likes |

jashar: IT'S VERY TRUE, I AGREE STRONGLY WITH YOU I ASKED A DOCTOR YEARS AGO AND HE EDUCATED ME ON THIS AND HE TOLD ME ABOUT THE RHOGAM INJECTION TOO BUT WITH GOD NOTHING IS AN ISSUE WHICH WAS Y HE SAID; MY CHILD, WHEN YOU FEEL ILL, DO NOT IGNORE IT. PRAY TO THE LORD FERVENTLY AND HE WILL MAKE YOU WELL. HAVE FAITH THAT HE WHO IS HEALED IS HEALED INDEED.THEN, CALL THE DOCTOR FOR THE LORD CREATED HIM AND KERP HIM BY YOUR SIDE BECAUSE YOU NEED HIM. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN YOU HAVE TO DEPEND ON HIS SKILLS. GIVE THEM THE HONOR THEY DESERVE FOR THE LORD GAVE THEM THEIR WORK TO DO. THEIR SKILLS CAME FROM THE MOST HIGH AND KINGS, REWARD THEM FOR IT. THEIR KNOWLEDGE GIVES THEM A POSITION OF IMPORTANCE, AND POWERFUL PEOPLE HOLD THEM IN HIGH REGARD. SAME WAY WE NEED AN ENGINEER, A TEACHER, A TAILOR, A LAWYER, A FARMER, A CARPENTER, A DRIVER, A SAILOR, A PILOT, A TRADER, AN ACCOUNTANT, A BANKER, ETC IS D SAME WAY WE NEED OUR MEDICAL DOCTORS. GOD GAVE THE POWER TO THEM ALL AND THEIR PRAYERS IS THAT; THE LORD WILL MAKE THEM ABLE TO EASE THEIR PATIENTS PAINS AND MAKE THEM WELL AGAIN. GOD ALSO CREATED MEDICINES FROM THE EARTH AND A SENSIBLE PERSON WILL NOT HESITATE TO USE THEM. HE GAVE MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE TO THEM SO THAT HIS NAME WILL BE PRAISED FOR THE MIRACLES HE PERFORMS. THANKS TO ALL THE MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS. GOD BLESS And thanks to whoeva posted this, it's indeed educating and its serves as a reminder. God bless yu too #GoodNewsBible 1 Like |
