Osteoporosis And Menopause
There is certainly a link between osteoporosis and menopause and osteoroposis is one of the conditions a woman must be concerned about during that period of life.
Osteoporosis is simply bone loss. It is inherent in aging for both men and women, although women are more susceptible to it.
The loss of bone mass begins approximately at age 40. After menopause, there is an acceleration of five to seven years at which point it returns to its normal age-related rate.
