"Hypogammaglobulinemia describes low levels of immunoglobulins in your body. Immunoglobulins are antibodies that fight germs like viruses and bacteria that can make you sick. Having low levels may increase your risk of infections and other diseases. Antibiotics, immunoglobulin replacement therapy and stem cell transplant are potential treatments."
