Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease where the bile ducts in the liver become damaged, leading to a buildup of bile and liver scarring. It is an autoimmune condition, where the body’s immune system attacks its own liver tissue. Common symptoms include fatigue, itching, jaundice, and abdominal discomfort. If left untreated, PBC can progress to liver failure. Early diagnosis and treatment with medications, such as ursodeoxycholic acid, can help manage symptoms and slow the disease's progression, improving the quality of life for affected individuals.
