why female kidney cannot be donated to a male? and if donated what are its side effects?
Answers
Answer:
due to small size of kidney of females it can't work properly in males
Women getting a male donor heart were no more likely to have organ rejection than if the heart came from another woman. The findings indicate that if a choice is available, doctors should give a transplant patient a heart from a donor of the same sex, the researchers said.
The gender of donor and recipient plays a larger role in kidney transplants than previously assumed. Female donor kidneys do not function as well in men -- due to their smaller size. Women have a higher risk of rejecting a male donor kidney.
Some possible long-term risks of donating a kidney may include high blood pressure (hypertension); large amount of protein in the urine; hernia; organ impairment or failure that leads to the need for dialysis or transplantation.
