How do I use Assert.Throws to assert type of the exception and the actual message workding.

Something like this:

Assert.Throws<Exception>(
    ()=>user.MakeUserActive()).WithMessage("Actual exception message")

Method I am testing throws multiple messages of the same type, with different message and I need a way to test that correct message is thrown depending on the context.
