Did you know that 80% of autoimmune disease cases affect women—and that perimenopause can trigger or worsen symptoms in ways most doctors don't discuss?
For millions of women living with conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Sjögren's syndrome, or Hashimoto's, the transition to menopause isn't just hot flashes and mood changes. It's unpredictable flares, deepening fatigue, and symptoms that suddenly become harder to manage.
Here's what's happening: As estrogen levels decline, your immune system becomes more dysregulated. Lower estrogen tips the body toward heightened inflammatory responses, even if your condition was stable before perimenopause.
The result? One week your body is calm, the next it's launching an inflammatory attack.
Yet most conventional care doesn't prepare women for this intersection. You're left wondering why your joints suddenly hurt more, your brain fog has intensified, or your medication doesn't seem to be working like it used to.
This is exactly why we're building Project Eve—to illuminate this critical gap in women's health.
