If your blood type is (A-), you can receive blood from an (O-) donor. Conversely, an (A-) donor's blood can be used by recipients with (A+); (A-); (AB+); and (AB-) blood types. Source: American Red Cross In terms of life expectancy after having received a blood transfusion, I called the American Red Cross and the woman that took my call provided me with valuable information. She, herself, had received a bood tranfusion in 1990 at the age of 22. Today, she's 41 and feeling as good as ever. She indicated that if something is going to go wrong with a transfusion, it will usually occur within the 1st two weeks. After that point, the blood that you received will have metabolized within your system (body) and that under normal circumstances, one should expect to lead a normal life. She did caution; however, that HIV patients who receive blood transfusions, should have their blood tested on a regular basis under the supervision of a medical doctor.
Menstrual blood flow is a healthy and physiological phenomena. But it can not be used for transfusion of blood. As it contains shedding from uterine wall. That way, it can not be called as clean blood.

Could be several reasons/factors that would require a blood transfusion. The number one cause is due to massive blood loss. My guess in this case (since no blood loss is noted) would be due to anemia (which is a condition characterized by a deficiency of red blood cells). Roughly 13% of people over the age of 70 are anemic, with the most common causes being chronic disease and iron deficiency (a required structural component of red blood cells). Red blood cells carry oxygen to tissue and when there is a deficiency of these cells the body does not receive adequate oxygenation resulting in weakness, fast heartbeat, and shortness of breath during exercise. A blood transfusion is one of the most common ways to treat more severe cases of anemia, which would be my guess as a cause in this case. Mr. Pharmacist
"Thanks for the Memories" is a novel written by Cecelia Ahern in 2008. It tells the story of a woman who receives a blood transfusion and begins experiencing memories that aren't her own.
