Lupus is an autoimmune condition where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy parts of the body, causing inflammation, pain and symptoms that often come and go in flares. Because symptoms can mimic other conditions, Lupus can take time to diagnose, but many people learn to manage it through medication, lifestyle changes, rest and support.
For many women, living with Lupus becomes about adapting rather than giving up — finding new ways to work, travel, socialise and still feel like yourself.
