Autoimmune Hepatitis

Autoimmune hepatitis is a chronic liver disease where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the liver, causing inflammation and liver damage. If left untreated, it can lead to serious complications such as cirrhosis and liver failure. This condition is more common in women and may result from a combination of genetic predisposition, environmental triggers, and an abnormal immune system response. Early detection and treatment are important for managing autoimmune hepatitis and preventing long-term liver damage.
