It can occur as a result of an adverse reaction from the treatment of other problems or conditions as well. Conditions like HIV, Chemotherapy and Lupus can make an immune system weak. Those people, who are undergoing immunosuppression caused due to these reasons, are said to be immunocompromised.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">When the organ gets transplanted, the immune system of the recipient takes it as a foreign tissue and attacks it. If the destruction of the organ will is left untreated, then it may result in death of the recipient too. During the early days, Radiation therapy was commonly used in order to decrease the strength of the immune system. Now immunosuppressant drugs are used to prevent the activity of the immune system. The side-effect is that with the deactivated immune system, the body becomes susceptible to infections, even with the one that are harmless. Extended use of immunosuppressants can increase the risk of cancer too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Immunodeficiency disorders also called as immunosuppression; that can be divided into primary and secondary type of disorders.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Also read:\u00a0<a title=\"The foods you can rely on when you are sick\" href=\"https:\/\/www.alldaychemist.com\/blog\/foods-can-rely-sick\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The foods you can rely on when you are sick<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Types of immunodeficiency disorders and its causes<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Immunodeficiency disorders inhibit the body to fight off infections and diseases They make the body more vulnerable to catch a virus or bacterial infections. These disorders are divided into congenital (primary) and acquired (secondary).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Primary immunodeficiency disorders<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The primary immunodeficiency weakens the immune system. They are a type of immune disorder that is present since birth. The primary disorders commonly include:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li>X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA)<\/li>\n<li>Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID disorders)<\/li>\n<li>Common variable immunodeficiency<\/li>\n<li>Alymphocytosis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The primary immunodeficiency disorder is inherited that is; they can pass from your parents. The problems in the DNA are a primary cause of the immune system defects in this disorder type. There are a number of types of primary immunodeficiency disorders. These are broadly classified into six groups according to a part of the immune system affected:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">B cell (antibody) deficiencies<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">T cell deficiencies<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Combination B and T cell deficiencies<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Defective phagocytes<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Complement deficiencies<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Unknown (idiopathic)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Secondary immunodeficiency disorders<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The Secondary immunodeficiency disorder is much common than primary disorder. Even if a person has an immunodeficiency disorder then he is likely to have a secondary disorder only. The main causes of secondary immunodeficiency disorder include chronic diseases like diabetes, chemotherapy given during cancer treatment, immunosuppressive drugs, and severe malnutrition. Drugs or medications are meant to destroy body\u2019s defenses. If we will see then one of the common drug- related causes, include intravenous drug usage with dirty needles.
