Please carefully read the notice below to understand the eligibility requirements, precautions, and safety information before blood donation.
Health Standards for Blood Donors:
Age: 18 to 55 years old (those with recent donation history may extend up to 60 years old).
Weight: At least 50 kg for males and 45 kg for females.
Blood Tests: Hemoglobin and transaminase levels must meet the required standards; hepatitis B surface antigen, syphilis screening, and other tests must also meet the required criteria. No underlying diseases such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes, or asthma. Normal heart and lung function, no enlarged liver or spleen, and no deformities or severe disabilities.
Precautions Before Blood Donation:
Please bring valid identification on the day of donation, such as an ID card, driver’s license, or medical insurance card.
Do not donate blood on an empty stomach; avoid alcohol the day before donation. No fever, severe cold, or allergic symptoms within one week prior to donation. Do not take aspirin or aspirin-containing medication within 5 days before donation. Women should avoid donating blood during menstruation and within three days before or after their period. Ensure sufficient sleep the day before donation and avoid excessive fatigue. After recovering from influenza with fever, you may donate blood after 7 days.
Safety of Voluntary Blood Donation:
The human body has a strong self-regulation ability. After donation, lost water and inorganic salts are replenished within 1–2 hours as tissue fluid enters the blood vessels. Lost plasma proteins are replenished through accelerated synthesis in the liver and return to normal within a few days. Blood cells have a natural lifespan; even without donation, old cells are continuously replaced by new ones. Moderate blood donation (200–400 mL per session) does not harm health and allows the body to naturally replenish its blood components. After donation, avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours and maintain a balanced diet, appropriate exercise, and a regular lifestyle.
