I have already encountered situation like this, and according to research, immune system is influenced by signals from the female reproductive hormones. It seems that the levels of hormones, such as estrogen and testosterone, as well as changes in these levels can promote autoimmunity. Autoimmunity is a condition whereby the immune system turns and attacks the body's own tissues, such as skin, joints, liver, lungs, etc. Autoimmune diseases typically feature inflammation of various tissues of the body. The only medication to this is to visit your doctor for the best prescription.
