The correct answer is B. 500 IU Ig anti-D at 34 weeks of gestation.Anti-D prophylaxis is recommended for Rh-negative pregnant women to prevent the development of antibodies against the Rh factor. The recommended regimen for anti-D prophylaxis in Rh-negative women who are not sensitized is to administer 500 IU of intramuscular anti-D immunoglobulin (Ig anti-D) at 34 weeks of gestation. This is done to prevent the woman's immune system from producing antibodies against the Rh factor if the fetus is Rh-positive.
