56 days—the time it takes your body
to replace the red blood cells and iron lost after donating.
Thus, you can donate six times a year.

I've donated blood several times. I always felt slightly tired for the rest of the day, but the next day I was fine. I can't tell you how long it takes to get new blood cells, but I do know in a general way that blood cells wear out and get replaced quickly in the normal course of things.

well good for you.....you might just have saved my life......or yours by taking such bold step and bieng needled in the name of blood transfusion..... it all depends how much blood you donate and wether you donated it willingly or not....by that I mean, some folks donate blood in fist fights,some in accidents,some......in birth......you get the idea!......anyway it takes anything from 5weeks to 8weeks for a average human bieng to get back to normal undiluted blood level. but you can go ahead and bieng rigorous & normal(but with less blood) after 2days
