The only way to check your blood type is with a blood group test.
Our blood group blood test will be analysed in a leading UK laboratory and tell you which blood type you have.
Find out whether you have blood group A, B, AB or O, and whether you are rhesus negative or rhesus positive.
Knowing your blood type can be lifesaving in an emergency. If you need a blood transfusion you will need compatible blood with your blood type, and receiving an incompatible type can cause damage to your body and even be fatal.
A blood group blood test is a diagnostic test that determines your blood type. It works by analysing the presence of antigens and antibodies in your blood, which can help identify your ABO blood group and Rh factor.
There are four main blood groups – A, B, AB, and O – and each one carries different antigens and antibodies that can impact your health.
There are several benefits to getting a blood group blood test.
Firstly, knowing your blood type can help ensure you receive the right blood transfusion if you ever need one. If you have a rare blood type, such as AB negative, it can be difficult to find compatible blood donors, so having this information on hand can be life-saving in an emergency.
In addition to helping with transfusions, your blood type can also impact your overall health. For example, individuals with type A blood may be more susceptible to heart disease, while those with type O blood may be more prone to stomach ulcers.
By understanding your blood type, you can take proactive steps to manage your health and reduce your risk of developing certain conditions.
