    Author: Pando JA, Gourley MF, Wilder RL, Crofford LJ.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1995 Nov; 22(11):2159-62. PubMed ID: 8596162.
    Abstract:
    Skin involvement is common in patients with SLE, and in some cases is related to the menstrual period. We describe the clinical course of 3 patients with menstrual related rashes who experienced a significant improvement from their skin disease after the initiation of oral contraceptives. The potential role of hormones in the manifestations of SLE is discussed.
