Description
In this episode of the Lupus Science and Medicine podcast, Dr. Megan Clowse, a rheumatologist at Duke University, discusses her research on contraceptive practices in women with lupus. Drawing from the RISE Registry, Dr. Clowse explores the alignment of contraception use with 2020 ACR guidelines, uncovering gaps in documentation and prescription practices. The conversation highlights the importance of reproductive health planning, the various birth control options for women with lupus, and the need for improved patient-doctor communication to ensure safe and effective family planning. Tune in to learn more about the findings and their implications for clinical care.
