I'm curious about blood group compatibility for marriage. Both my partner and I have A positive blood types. Could this lead to any issues or concerns we should be aware of?

In general, there are no significant concerns or complications for a marriage between two individuals with A+ positive blood groups, as they share the same ABO blood type and Rh positivity, minimizing the risk of blood transfusion reactions or hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) in their offspring

I'm a bit worried about my fianc's haemoglobin levels. Just last month, it was at 16.5, and now it has jumped to 17.5. He found out when he tried to donate blood, and they suggested he see a doctor about why his haemoglobin might be increasing. Can you help us understand why this might be happening and how we can get it back to normal levels?

...I can understand your concern. a haemoglobin level of to 16 to 17 is only slightly above normal. so no need to worry for now. so individuals can have slightly high haemoglobin even normally. very high haemoglobin is seen conditions like polycythemia Vera or bone marrow abnormalities. repeat his blood investigations after a month. if it's still increasing then consult a haemotologist or general physician for further evaluation.

I'm worried because my eosinophils count is high at 9. What sort of problems could this cause, and how can I lower the eosinophils levels in my blood with medication?

To reduce eosinophils in the blood, you can consider using a medication called Prednisone. It is important to follow your doctor's prescription and guidance while taking this medication.
