Also known as "silent disease," it is a medical disorder that weakens bones, making them more fragile and prone to fractures.
Cause
Older persons are more vulnerable to osteoporosis because bone density normally declines with age.
Postmenopausal women are more vulnerable due to a decrease in estrogen, a hormone that helps protect bone density.
A sedentary way of life without engaging in regular exercise.
Smoking, excessive alcohol intake, and poor calcium and vitamin D diets can all contribute to bone loss.
Prevention
Regular bone density testing, particularly in postmenopausal women and the elderly, aids in early detection and intervention.
Hormone therapy and medications may be considered for post-menopausal women. However, lifestyle factors remain crucial.
Regular weight-bearing exercises like jogging, walking, and resistance training strengthen and maintain bone density.
Avoiding smoking and minimizing alcohol consumption improves general bone health.
