So at least tests should be done for sexually transmitted diseases like AIDS. Also, negative blood group is uncommon but it is still there.

Health reports including blood tests should be checked and exchanged before marriage, so as to see compatibility of would be partners. However, there is little awareness about it in India and parents of prospective bride and groom do not pay much attention to health issues of their daughters and sons.

Yes, both has to go through same set of tests. Not only for Thalassaemia but also other diseases and blood group compatibility. Especially in India, marriage is fixed by caste, gotra etc; they should give priority for blood test.

True staying rooted in the present is the ideal situation taking each day at a time and making the best out of it. The analogy of the football and goalkeeper is aggressive but can work wonders as one cannot sit idle mulling if a plan fails. Instead if the individual devises a new counter strategy to effect a change in the situation and keeps…[Read more]

Yes I think that is a good option. Both should undergo blood test. Especially women considering modernization has made it possible for women to go through multiple partners.
