You learn what letter your blood type is (A, B, AB, and O). You also learn what your Rhesus, or RH, factor is. Your blood is either RH+, meaning the blood has the RH factor, or RH-, meaning the RH factor is not in your blood.he c, e, and d genes are negative RH genes; meaning there is no RH factor in the blood. Research shows only the âDâ gene causes sensitivity issues, so itâs the D gene that is of concern during your pregnancy. Thatâs why some care providers call the RH factor RH (D) positive or RH (D) negative.
