Description

Compared with men, women have a higher incidence of autoimmune disease and are more affected by rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs). Therefore, in light of the American Medical Association (AMA)’s Women in Medicine Month, we’re highlighting the importance of recognizing women’s health in rheumatology. The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) also recently released guidelines for the management of reproductive health in women with RMDs. Our featured guest is Mehret Birru-Talabi, MD, PhD, assistant professor of medicine and associate rheumatology fellowship program director in the Division of Rheumatology and Clinical Immunology at the University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. We will also be getting an expert input from lead author of the ACR guidelines on reproductive health in RMDs, Lisa Sammaritano, MD, attending physician, director of the Rheumatology Reproductive Health Program at the Barbara Volcker Center for Women and Rheumatic Disease in the Hospital for Special Surgery, New York, and professor of clinical medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine, New York.
