Ninety percent of those affected are women; however, men and children are also diagnosed with #lupus. #LupusAwarenessMonth #LupusAwareness

#Lupus is an unpredictable condition in which symptoms come and go (flares) and complications can arise suddenly. We need #innovative research that can identify a reliable method to predict and prevent flares before they occur. #LupusAwarenessMonth

The World Lupus Federation has released a white paper exploring global awareness, attitudes, and misconceptions about lupus, highlighting the ongoing need for greater education, visibility, and support for people living with lupus worldwide. Read more: worldlupusfederation.org/2026/05/11/und…

The absence of reliable #biomarkers is a challenge for clinicians in providing the most optimal patient care and is impeding the development of new #lupus therapies. #LupusAwarenessMonth

#Lupus affects women 9 times more often than men, with eighty percent of new cases developing between the ages of 15 and 44 during their child-bearing years or prime of life. #LupusAwarenessMonth #LupusAwareness

There is no known cause or cure for #Lupus or #LupusNephritis. Research is critical to discover the pathogenesis of lupus, better treatments and improve lives.

May is #LupusAwarenessMonth, and your voice matters. 💜 Lupus is different for everyone & the world needs to understand that. Share your lived experience using #LupusFeelsLike and #LupusChat to help others feel less alone and bring visibility to the realities of this disease.

Only five treatments are approved for #lupus (aspirin, corticosteroids, hydroxychloroquine, belimumab, and anifrolumab-fnia) and three drugs for lupus nephritis (belimumab, voclosporin and obinutuzumab). #lupusawarenessmonth #autoimmune

Developing disease-modifying therapies in #lupus has proven difficult given the #heterogeneity of the disease, unpredictable relapsing and remitting course of the symptoms, and the lack of validated biomarkers, inadequate clinical endpoints and outcome measures. #lupusawareness

Love the bracelets, Trisha! Keep up the great work, you are a stellar Lupus Awareness Ambassador! 💜🦋

#Lupus is a leading cause of kidney disease, stroke and premature cardiovascular disease in young women and is highly individualized, extremely volatile, debilitating, life-diminishing, and potentially fatal. #lupusawareness #lupusawarenessmonth
