osteoporosis Tag

It is a condition in which bones become thinner, weaker and the risk of fracture increases as a result of decreased bone density. Osteoporosis is more common in women, especially after menopause. This is because the estrogen hormone decreases. However, it can also be seen in men. Osteoporosis usually does not show any signs or symptoms and the person does not notice it until he or she experiences a bone fracture.
