Can Childhood Hypogammaglobulinemia Recur In Adulthood?
When I was little my two brothers and I had hypogammaglobulinemia. We had to get transfusions once every other week. When we got older we some how got better and no longer needed them. Is there a chance that it might come back? Also can I pass this down to my children?

Hi! kindly check your current immunoglobulin levels as there are so many types/causes of hypogammaglobulinemia.
Therefore, it might recur in the adulthood also and some familial / genetic forms also pass on to next generations!
