This test is essential if you don't know your blood type and want to be prepared for medical emergencies, surgery, or transfusions. It's especially important for women who are pregnant or planning to conceive, as knowing your Rh factor can prevent serious complications for your baby. Many people get this test for peace of mind, to have critical health information on hand, or because they're planning to donate blood.
There are no special preparations needed for this blood type test. You don't need to fast or avoid any foods or medications beforehand. Simply schedule your appointment and come in as you normally would—this is one of the simplest blood tests you can get.
This test determines your ABO blood group, which identifies whether you have type A, B, AB, or O blood, and your Rh type, which tells you if you're Rh-positive or Rh-negative. Together, these two pieces of information are crucial for safe blood transfusions, organ transplants, and pregnancy planning, as mismatched blood types can cause serious complications. Knowing both your ABO and Rh status gives you complete information about your blood type compatibility.
What this means
Your blood type has been identified as O Positive, which is the most common blood type (about 38% of the population). This means you can receive blood from O-positive and O-negative donors, and you can donate to anyone with a positive Rh factor (O+, A+, B+, AB+).
Recommended actions
Keep a record of your blood type in your wallet or phone for emergencies
Share this information with your doctor and update your medical records
Consider becoming a blood donor, as O-positive blood is always in high demand
If you're pregnant or planning pregnancy, discuss your Rh-positive status with your healthcare provider
