SUMMARY:How Hormones Can Tell a Fertility Story
DESCRIPTION:In the United States\, there are more than 100 diagnostic tests and procedures available for detecting diseases and monitoring their progression. Diagnostic tools are also used to guide treatments and evaluate their effectiveness. Some tests are invasive\, such as a biopsy or endoscopy; whereas others are noninvasive\, such as x-rays and ultrasound imaging procedures. \nInnovations in diagnostics provide access to health information\, helping women make informed decisions about their health care at every stage of their lives. Screening and diagnostic testing can lead to earlier detection of disease\, improve health outcomes\, and contribute toward reducing health disparities among women. \nSWHR is hosting a series of public forums to share educational information about the importance and value of innovative diagnostics throughout the lifespan and across disease states and conditions. The events discuss how to improve health outcomes for diseases and conditions that disproportionately or exclusively affect women\, with special a focus on cancers\, reproductive health\, and bone health. \nThe SWHR Value of Diagnostics within Women’s Health series includes: \n\nHow Vaccines and Screening Can Prevent Cervical Cancer (January 26\, 2022)\nImproving Lives by Detecting Sexually Transmitted Infections Early (April 13\, 2022)\nAssessing and Promoting Bone Health Across the Lifespan (May 18\, 2022)\nHow Hormones Can Tell a Fertility Story (June 8\, 2022)\nOvarian Cancer Screening: More than a Pelvic Exam (September 7\, 2022)\nUnderstanding the Tests that Could Save My Breasts (October 12\, 2022)

SUMMARY:Closing the Loop for Lupus in Women’s Health Care
DESCRIPTION:Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by widespread inflammation that often results in damage to the joints\, skin\, brain\, lungs\, kidneys and blood vessels. An estimated 1.5 million Americans have some form of lupus\, and 90% are women between the ages of 15 and 44. Lupus is more prevalent among women of color\, who also develop symptoms at younger ages and have more severe symptoms and complications from the disease. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is the most common type of lupus\, affecting multiple parts of the body\, and cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) primarily affects the skin. Because the symptoms of lupus mimic other diseases\, a majority of patients are initially misdiagnosed\, and it can take up to 6 years and seeing multiple health care specialists before receiving an accurate diagnosis. Women living with lupus have a greater risk for developing other chronic conditions\, such as heart disease and osteoporosis\, or lupus nephritis due to kidney inflammation and damage. Although lupus does not affect fertility\, pregnant women should be aware of potential complications\, such as preeclampsia. \nThere is no cure for lupus\, and the limited treatments available primarily focus on reducing symptom flares\, resulting in insufficiently improved health outcomes. There is a pressing need to address gaps in research and clinical education\, and to develop policy solutions that will eliminate barriers to access for treatments and quality care for women. \nSWHR hosted a virtual public forum to discuss the impacts of lupus on women’s health\, including the experiences of women living with lupus\, and how to navigate access and management of care. \nThis public forum is a follow-up to SWHR’s Lupus Roundtable in June 2022\, to identify gaps in research\, clinical practice\, policy\, and education. \nThis is event part of the SWHR Closing the Loop for Lupus series\, which includes: \n\nClosing the Loop for Lupus in Women’s Health Care (June 15\, 2022)\nA Fireside Chat (October 17\, 2022)\nA Wellness Toolkit for Women (December 5\, 2022)\n\n
