I'm curious about blood group compatibility for marriage. Both my partner and I have A positive blood types. Could this lead to any issues or concerns we should be aware of?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
In general, there are no significant concerns or complications for a marriage between two individuals with A+ positive blood groups, as they share the same ABO blood type and Rh positivity, minimizing the risk of blood transfusion reactions or hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) in their offspring

View allI'm concerned about my mom, who's been on Orofer XT for the past year. She's 68, and her hemoglobin is at 9.3, but everything else in her CBC is fine, and her sugar levels are controlled. Should she keep taking the Orofer XT, or is it time to stop?
It is better to stop the medication , Advised complete blood count and physician review.

I've been running a fever for 25 days, and my hemoglobin levels are kinda low at 8.5. Could the low hemoglobin be what's causing the fever?

I'm really concerned about my hemoglobin levels. In July, my HB was at 8.7, and now it's dropped to 5.8. I've already done all the blood-related tests, but they haven't shown any issues. I'm wondering if drinking red wine could help increase my hemoglobin. What do you think?
Red wine can provide some iron, but it's not a reliable or significant source to increase hemoglobin. If your hemoglobin is very low, it's important to focus on iron-rich foods, supplements, and follow up with your doctor to find the underlying cause.
