No. When donating blood, your blood hemoglobin and hematocrit must be within acceptable levels in order to give blood. With hemolytic anemia, the counts would be lower than normal and therefore you would not be allowed to donate.
Not everyone can donate blood. People who have had certain illnesses, are taking (or ever have taken) certain medications or even those who have visited certain countries within particular time frames could be temporarily or permanently ineligible to donate.
APPEAL TO INDIANS
Blood Donation is the biggest donation in the world. As we all know, tragedy occurs every other day and we hear about blood shortages. We cannot let people die short of blood. Our blood can give life to someone, someday. Hence, it is our duty as an Indian to stand up to the situation.
No. Â When people go to donate blood, they do a fingerprick test to see if you are anaemic. Â If you are, the drop of blood will float near the surface of fluid they drop a bit of blood into. Â If they see you are anaemic, they will not accept a donation from you, and will advise you of things to do, such as visiting your doctor for investigation as to why you are anaemic. Â When the cause is found, treatment can start. Â When your anaemia has been successfully treated, they will probably acept a donation from you if you pass their fingerprick test.
No. They test a drop of your blood before you donate, and if your iron is too low, they won't let you give.

You are tested before you give blood to see if you are anemic. If you dont have any diseases and are not anemic, then your blood would be a welcome thing to donate. If you are wondering if you should do it, then give it a try. You might feel very good about yourself for doing so.
