Why Rhesus (Rh) Factor Test? by Azijo: 10:16am On Aug 25, 2014
Seem not to understand why this test is recommended for pregnant women. I know Rh Factor to be an inherited trait that refers to a specific protein found on the surface of red blood cells; and it does not affect health.
Why then or when does it become necessary for pregnant women to undergo this antibody screen?
Your professional help is well appreciated in advance!!
