"Your immune system is fooled into thinking that everything is great and kosher" Lol. Perfectly clear explanation. Thank you very much.

This has been the simplistic most effective explanation I've ever received. Thank you for taking the time to make this video :)

I had Rhogam shot in 1971 when I started learning I am Rh negative, then carried a card to say that I must have another Rhogam from blood loss or after having another child . I have learned from then to now which has now been 42 years but have learned RH neg are very unique which I’ve known my whole life before I was aware of blood type ,we Rh negs have lots in common.

brilliant!!! thank you!!!!! I was trying to figure this out but you explain it so well...no one explained it this well for me.

Thank you for giving an explanation. So many sources don’t explain how the RhoGAM works.

At last, i could move forward! Thanks for making this simple and easy to understand. I was to give up then i found this🥺

Thanks for breaking it down!

Damn , i loved your videos . It was so old that i was feeling nostalgic but that not even my memories .

Thank you!

I had to get this shot before I had to get an abortion because of my baby's blood and my baby having complications. But this helped me understand the shot better. I am in fact Rh negative but had no idea what to think about the shot or the card I got when I found out.

Tnx for good information! I want to understand rho gam giving just routinely/roule at 28w(3th trimester)? If giving starting 3th trimester (25w/26w/27w) it can be effected during pregnancy ? again at 28w or later needed for cooms test and another dose? You said memory b cell sensitive at 28w...so everytime cooms test will be positive givining to rho gam?? Please 🙏 answer my questions tnx

Very informative. Thank you kindly

that was so useful thankyouuuuuuu soooooooooo muchhhhh

Okay here's my problem why are they giving women rhogam that have Rh negative babies they don't need rhogam if the baby is negative only if the baby is positive nor will they tell you the baby's blood type. This is called protocol so that everybody can get paid in spite of what they're doing to the child in the mother when it's not needed

With Rh negative babies they don't give the second Rhogam injection (after the baby is born). The first one is given early on before they know the baby's blood type.

you are amazing.. thank you so much it is so simple now thank you

Thank you sooooo much

Cool, thank you. I got it.

So clear and simple. Thank you. One question though , rhogum is "anti D antibodies" right ? Then what are rhesus antibodies that are produced during a sensitization in a rh - vet mother who was not given prophylaxis . By giving rhogum all what we do is have antibodies in store to cover the antigen on RBCs, before the APCs present them as foreign to the immune system right ? Can u please explain whether anti D Abs and rhesus antibodies is the same or not

@marissarose1667

Жыл бұрын

I don't completely understand but it seems like the ant D abs and the Reyes antibodies do opposite things. The Rhogam anti-dibodies would protect the baby while the others would attack, because you've built an immunity to that blood type after a blood transfusion or whatever. One is an immunity for you one is an immunity for the child. I might be completely wrong but that's my understanding, I'm probably about to have to get the Rhogam shot myself

thanks!

Explained it so easily..👍

Thank you love

why this rhogam does not attack fetal rbc??

thanks! That was a great explanation to a confusing topic I have been having trouble understanding. One question, is the point of giving th Rhogam to the mother within 72 hrs after birth just so she doesn't make antibodies that may affect a future pregnancy? It doesn't have any benefit at that exact moment, right?

real talk If the father is negative there is no need for the shot at all (unless you think the father was someone else). If the mother has amniocentesis and knows the baby has negative blood, again, no need for any harmful injections. There is only a risk of sensitization if the baby's blood somehow mixes with the mothers, like during birth. I had C-sections and so did my mother and her mother. For some reason we just don't go into labor even when induced. So I'm not sure there would be any chance for contamination. For me, they gave me that damn shot after every pregnancy ended no matter how it ended, birth, miscarriage, abortion, any pregnancy that ended...the shot was given. I had a lot of those stupid shots. I was very fertile. Seems like some doctors try to force it on every negative woman whether she needs it or not. But no, it's my understanding that a single shot won't give immunity for life. Or at least, that's what they want us to believe.

Med School Made Easy I’m confused on sensitization. RHOGAM helps prevent sensitization, so I’m understanding. So, if a patient has been sensitized, the RHOGAM won’t help? If you already make your own antibodies to RH+, you can’t “unlearn?” Asking from the point of view of an RH- woman who’s experienced several chemical pregnancies and one ectopic which went self-corrected (ended on its own.) Patient received Rhogham after that ectopic / miscarriage but might it be too late and She makes her own antibodies to Rh+. (Her husband is rh+) She has no children.

@miraikaisar386

@@smutches The Rhogam creates a sort of fake antibodies to cover the fetal Rh receptors so that those of the mother cannot bind with them even if they do exist. The reason they give them at 28wk is because it is common for maternal and fetal blood to start mixing minimally at that time period but enough to cause the mother to form antibodies that can attack the fetus. As previously mentioned, rhogam doesn't last more than 12 weeks and during delivery maternal and fetal blood mixes again and if the mother has antibodies against the fetal blood then the fetus will experience blood hemolysis (the breaking down of red blood cells) which could be (and usually is) fatal

I am B+ and my husband is B+. My daughter was born in a military hospital and we were told she was B+ (it is on her newborn health record). Now 22 years later she is being told by her OBGYN that she is B-. My other two children were also B+. Rhogam is contraindicated for Rh+. Her husband is O+. I don't want her to have the shot is she is Rh+ because of the side effects it causes in Rh+ people. Can anyone explain how she could have changed her Rh value?

@TaylorWilmes

A reason that you would've been told your daughter was Rh pos is that her reverse type was from the mother's (yours) since babies don't have antibodies. Since it was your first child, you didn't need rhogam because anti-D doesn't effect the baby/mother until subsequent pregnancies. Your daughter was typed B- and since her husband’s blood was O+, giving RhoGam was necessary. They don’t give RhoGam to Rh positive mothers.

Thank you!! You save me :)

I’m O neg and my first baby was also O neg but I think I was given the shot anyway, supposedly to prevent problems with future pregnancies. I also got the Rhogam shot each pregnancy after. I have no idea if I’ve been sensitized or not.

Btw I am A-RH NEGATIVE I had rhogam after the birth of my first son in 1986 But I definitely would not have allowed them to inject me with that if I knew about Rh negative Rh positive etc. etc. and I know that the first birth of an Rh positive child from an RH negative mother won’t do any harm at all it’s always the consecutive bursts afterwards but there was no mixing of the blood there was no anything I had a regular birth no problems whatsoever there was no reason for them to have given me that and it is made out of human blood well at least what I got in 1986 but I would never ever let them inject me with that again

So what happens if the mother and fetus are both Rh negative but rhoGAM is administered?
