Women are able to tolerate the father’s contribution of foreign protein in their child during pregnancy because progesterone is highly immunosuppressive. During pregnancy the immune balance switches from Th1 to Th2 balance. This strengthens humoural immunity but weakens cellular immunity. Immune responses are further compromised considerably when zinc and copper are deficient. The use of contraceptive hormones, which are progesterone dominant, and hormone replacement therapy, which also is progesterone dominant in women with an intact uterus, has resulted in an increase in key nutritional deficiencies and increases in autoimmune diseases in women.
