OSTEOPOROSIS - WHAT IS IT REALLY?
OSTEOPOROSIS - WHAT IS IT REALLY?
The word 'OSTEOPOROSIS' means 'POROUS BONE'. It is a disease that weakens bones, and if you have it, you are at a greater risk for sudden and unexpected bone fractures.

The disease often develops without any symptoms or pain, and it is usually not discovered until the weakened bones cause painful fractures. Most of these are fractures of the hip, wrist and spine.
Who is at risk for developing Osteoporosis?
Who is at risk for developing Osteoporosis?
There are many risk factors that increase you chance of developing osteoporosis - two of the most significant being gender and age.
Everyone's risk for osteoporosis fractures increases with age. However, women over the age of 50 or postmenopausal women have the greatest risk of developing osteoporosis. Women undergo rapid bone loss in their first 10 years after entering menopause, because menopause slows the production of estrogen, a hormone that protects against excessive bone loss.
Women are four times more likely to develop Osteoporosis than men
