Answer
Low levels of immunoglobulin M (IgM) are commonly seen in primary hypogammaglobulinemia, non-IgA and IgG multiple myeloma, Hodgkin’s disease, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, protein-losing gastrointestinal disease, and other conditions. Methods to increase immunoglobulin M include protein supplementation, which can be oral or intravenous, but it is recommended to undergo treatment under a doctor’s guidance.
