Osteoporosis Introduction
Osteoporosis is a condition where bones become weaker and more fragile, increasing the risk of fractures, particularly in the spine, hip, and wrist. It is prevalent in India, affecting approximately 46 million women over 50. Healthy bones are living tissues that undergo continual breakdown and rebuilding. However, as we age, the breakdown process surpasses the rebuilding process, causing bones to lose their normal structure and strength. This deterioration makes them susceptible to fractures even from minor stresses, such as sneezing or coughing.
