O- Mother Delivered B+ Baby with Jaundice – Is Anti-D Injection Needed? Impact on Baby & Future Pregnancies

Patient's Query

Woman with O- blood group dilevered a male baby with B+ blood group. Husband is having AB+bood group. Baby is having jaundice . Is there any medication of Anti-D injection to be given to mother What shall b impact on baby and future pregnancy

Answered by Dr. Nisarg Patel

Yes, since the mother is O-negative and the baby is B-positive, Anti-D (Rho(D) immunoglobulin) must be given to the mother within 72 hours of delivery to prevent Rh sensitization.

✔️ Baby’s jaundice may be due to Rh incompatibility, which is treatable with phototherapy or other supportive care
✔️ Giving Anti-D now helps protect future pregnancies by preventing the mother's immune system from attacking future Rh-positive babies
✔️ It is also given during pregnancy (at 28 weeks) and after events like bleeding or miscarriage

Please consult your gynecologist immediately if Anti-D hasn't been administered yet.

Is it normal to bleed 8 days after taking the plan b

Male | 19

This is a common side effect of Plan B; nonetheless, there are some cases when it might also cause bleeding. Sometimes, the pill may alter your menstrual cycle and then you'll get the annoying bleeding. But, if you have heavy bleeding, severe pain, or feel dizzy, you must consult the doctor about this. Make it a habit to drink plenty of water and take proper amounts of rest.

My periods is delaying My last periods was on august 20

Female | 27



There are a variety of factors that can cause a delay in menstruation. STRESS, WEIGHT, and PCOS are all common. PREGNANCY or menopause are also possible explanations for a late period. If you are SEXUALLY ACTIVE, it is recommended that you take a pregnancy test. Otherwise, it may be best to simply WAIT IT OUT. If your period still hasn't arrived after a month, it's time to CONSULT A DOCTOR.

Female | 29

The light bleeding and vaginal itching could likely be attributed to a post-D&C infection. I would recommend you go for a gynecological examination and treatment.

Hy , unwanted 72 pills lene ke kitne din baad periods aate hai, unwanted 72 pills ke saath 2 painkiller lene se koi side effects toh nhi hota h

Female | 20

Unwante­d 72 pills make periods start within one we­ek. Taking two painkillers with it might be fine­. But, some people could fe­el a little sick or get a small he­adache. If you have bad symptoms like tummy pain, fe­eling dizzy, or bleeding we­irdly, get medical help.
