Autoimmune Diseases and Their Prevalence in Women

Autoimmune diseases represent a diverse group of chronic conditions in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own cells and tissues. These disorders can affect virtually any organ system, including the skin, joints, muscles, nerves, glands, and internal organs. While autoimmune diseases impact millions globally, approximately 80% of those affected are women, making it a significant concern in the context of women’s health. This disproportionate prevalence in females points to the complex interplay of genetic, hormonal, environmental, and immunological factors that influence the female immune response. Among the more than 80 recognized autoimmune diseases, some of the most common and impactful on women include systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, multiple sclerosis (MS), Graves’ disease, Sjögren’s syndrome, and type 1 diabetes.These conditions not only cause debilitating symptoms such as chronic fatigue, joint pain, inflammation, and organ damage but can also lead to complications that affect reproductive health, fertility, pregnancy, and mental well-being. Many women report experiencing years of vague or misattributed symptoms before receiving an accurate diagnosis, underscoring the need for heightened awareness and clinical vigilance.
