Question 1

what are antibodies c and d in blood after pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Rh?: Ask your physician whether these are antibodies against components of the rh system. Anti-d is the one that's likely to be troublesome.

Question 2

i have antibodies in my blood i'm o+ labs can't identify my antibodies i'm 31 weeks this is my 3rd pregnancy can anyone explain docs have no idea why!

Accepted Answer

Insufficient info: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Having said that, it may help to talk to the pathologist at the laboratory that did the testing. It is not feasible to provide an opinion without knowing the nature of the antibody and the tests done so far.

Question 3

35 week of pregnancy, antibody anti-e (1:8).my blood group:ab ccd.ee(rh pos), father b+.what does it mean?why should we test the antogen of the father?

Accepted Answer

Rh is complicated: Anti-e ("anti big-e") is much less likely to be troublesome than anti-d (the common anti-rh antibody). You inherited two copies of the cde allele, one of several that you can get at your main rh locus, and the father of at least one of your children has at least one copy of an allele with a big e. Titer isn't so important as how junior seems to be doing before birth. Best wishes.

Question 4

i am 13 days late for my cycle i have taken 3 hpt and a blood test i have symptoms of pregnancy but all test come back negative can a antibiotic alter?

Accepted Answer

See below: All of your statement may not have come through. However, if properly done pregnancy tests are negative at 13 days after a missed period, you not likely to be pregnant. If you continue to have doubts, you may ask your doctor to do an ultrasound examination.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Question 5

what is rubella igg antibody?  it's on the standard blood tests panel for pregnancy.

Accepted Answer

Infection response: Rubella, or any, igg antibody, is your body's response to exposure to an infection, such as a bacteria or virus (antigen).  A positive result means you have immunity and do not need a booster.

Question 6

i was deferred from donating plasma for having anti-d antibodies. i donated blood at the red cross and was deferred for having antya antibodies. i've never had a transfusion or problems with pregnancy. what's going on?

Accepted Answer

: If you had pregnancy, that would explain the antibodies. You do not need to have  problem with pregnancy to get sensitized to the fetal red cells that normally leak into the mother's blood.

Question 7

can antibodies wane after 10 years of having hiv so that they are undetectable on an hiv test? does the extra blood in your body during pregnancy reduce the amount of hiv antibodies in a single sample therefore possibility giving a false negative?

Accepted Answer

: This never happens, during pregnancy or any other time. Once someone has had HIV more than a few weeks, their antibody tests (or antigen-antibody tests, i.e. 4th generation) remain positive for life. No exceptions. Don't be worried about having HIV!

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Preg. blood sugars: If you are not a diabetic then your fasting blood sugars should be less than 126. Pregnancy can stress your body to cause blood sugars to rise.
