Not a doctor, but this is what I think I understand about it...
It's not specifically HRT that weakens your immune system. I think I heard that in the long run it actually strengthens it; for non-trans people, hormone supplementation is used to strengthen the body.
But the initial transition between one's body running on one set of hormones to running on another set causes a lot of biological stress, and that can mess with your immune system just because your body is busy dealing with other stuff.
