@KPangela Hello KPangela, thank you for opening this discussion, I think this is a very interesting topic for our ladies living with lupus!
Hello all, how are you today? 
Evidence has suggested that oestrogren plays an important role in lupus for women, as we all know it does in menopause as well. Some women with lupus may even experience premature menopause!
How is or was menopause for you? What symptoms did you experience? Did or have you noticed any changes in your lupus flares during this period? Were they better, worse, as usual?

Feel free to share your experiences and advice here!
Take care,
Courtney

My doctor doesn't like that word either I don't know about those of you who have lupus and are going to this as well.
I'm interested to find out your thoughts.
For me it's the anger lots of moods, I get very stressed very easily anyway so helpful tips on how to deal with that ~ apart from the deep breathing exercises meditation mindfulness?
I'm trying to stick with it...
