Blood group

A blood group test determines your blood type (A, B, AB, or O) and whether you're Rh-positive or Rh-negative. It's important in a pre-marital test because knowing your blood type helps prevent complications in pregnancy, such as Rh incompatibility, where a mother’s body may react to her baby’s blood type, potentially affecting the pregnancy.

Hb electrophoresis

Hb electrophoresis is a test that checks for abnormal types of hemoglobin in your blood, which could indicate conditions like sickle cell disease or thalassemia. It’s important in a pre-marital test because it helps identify genetic blood disorders that can be passed on to children, allowing couples to make informed decisions about their future family planning.

HIV

HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that weakens the immune system, making it harder for the body to fight infections. It’s important in a pre-marital test because knowing both partners' HIV status helps prevent the spread of the virus, allows for early treatment, and supports healthy family planning by reducing the risk of transmission to a spouse or future children.

Hepatitis B

Syphilis

Hepatitis B is a viral infection that affects the liver and can lead to serious liver damage if not treated. It’s important in a pre-marital test because knowing both partners' Hepatitis B status can prevent the virus from spreading, allowing for early vaccination or treatment to protect both partners and future children.

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that can cause serious health problems if left untreated, affecting organs like the heart, brain, and liver. It’s important in a pre-marital test because knowing whether either partner has syphilis can help prevent transmission, allowing for early treatment to ensure a healthy relationship and reduce the risk of complications during pregnancy or childbirth.
