What causes pain in the lower left side of a woman's abdomen?

Everyone has his or her own immune system, which protects the body's health at all times and prevents the body from being infected by foreign pathogens and viruses. However, the immune system's ability to fight infection is not the same for everyone. For example, women's immune systems are weaker than men's. Therefore, women are more likely to get sick than men under the same conditions. When a woman experiences pain in the lower left side of her abdomen, her immune system will be further weakened.
