Antibody Deficiencies

Antibody deficiencies are a type of immunodeficiency disorder where the immune system doesn’t produce enough antibodies. Antibodies are proteins that help fight infections. When someone has this deficiency, they may get sick more often or struggle with infections that are usually easy to fight off. This condition can be inherited or caused by other factors, like certain medications or infections. Treatment often includes regular immunoglobulin therapy to boost the body’s ability to fight infections and reduce the risk of serious illnesses. It's essential for individuals with antibody deficiencies to be monitored by healthcare professionals.
