Autoimmune diseases are more prevalent in women due to a combination of genetic and hormonal factors. Women’s immune systems can be more reactive, potentially leading to higher rates of autoimmune responses. Hormonal fluctuations, particularly related to estrogen, may also play a role in increasing susceptibility. Additionally, genetic predispositions and environmental factors can contribute to the higher prevalence of autoimmune diseases among women. Understanding these factors can help in early diagnosis and better management.
