Many of us already know their blood type, but they did not know of what kind of blood type they had. Now this article of mine will help you and give you more knowledge about your blood type. It is important for you to know this. Because you need this especially when you need a donor for your blood transfusion.
We have 4 kinds of blood type
Type A
Type B
Type AB
Type O
So lets explain that one by one. So that you will understand the importance of every blood type that you have and also of your family or love ones. Let's start to type A
Type A-blood type A has an antigen on their blood and also plasma/anti bodies
-the compatible for your blood type is opposite, therefore if you need a donor you need a blood type B. Why blood type B;because if you're donor is type A, your cells will attack by new blood cells that entered into your cells which is type A, so the result your life is in danger or can trigger adverse reaction can cause your life-threatening. It is important that you will know what kind of blood type can transfer to your blood to continued your body to fight the bad bacterias in our body.
Type B-since type B has B antigen, so you need blood type A, blood type A has an antigen and anti B antibodies, thats why type A is compatible for you. Because if you received a wrong blood type like type B, type AB or type O. Your blood cells will attack by new blood cells which will make your life in danger. Because your body will reject those wrong types blood cells because it is not compatible. You need more anti bodies. So since type A has an anti - B antibodies which will help you to boost your anti bodies strengthen your immune system to make you feel better and healed.
Type AB-(I have this blood type so lets figure out) type AB is such amazing blood, why? Because whether blood type A or blood type B can transfer into our blood cells. Because type AB has only antigen but no anti bodies, therefore we need more antibodies. So since type A and type B had an antibodies property. So it is best for us to have a transfusion of blood type A or blood type B. It is a rare blood type that's why it is amazing.
Type O-this blood type is very common to many people. The people will have this blood type is they don't have antigen in their blood cells. So therefore they are compatible to blood type A, B and O. Again there is no antigen to this blood type O, so they are compatible to A, B and O except AB. Type has only anti bodies A or B. But no antigen on their blood cells.
Now lets talk about their negative and positive sides, we must know that every blood cells has RhD antigen, so if there is RhD in there blood cells it means positive blood type and if there is no RhD antigen it means there blood type is negative. There is A(+, -) ;B(+, -);AB(+, -) ; and O(+, -)
A person with O-negative blood can donate to almost anyone.
A person with Rh-negative blood can donate to a person with Rh-negative or Rh-positive blood.
A person with Rh-positive blood can only donate to someone with Rh-positive blood.
The rules for plasma are the opposite of those for Rh. A universal plasma donor will have type AB blood.

If someone with group B antigen receives red blood cells from someone with group A antigen, their body will launch an immune response and reject the transfusion. The anti-A antibody in the recipient’s plasma will attack and destroy the A antigen donor red blood cells.
When the recipient’s plasma attacks and destroys the donor cells, the blood may clump, or agglutinate. This can lead to blood clots, which can obstruct blood vessels. If they break, hemoglobin can leak out, and this can be toxic.
