With advancing age, osteoporosis has become increasingly common, yet public awareness of its prevention is insufficient. Women’s bone density begins to decline continuously after menopause. Osteoporosis significantly increases the risk of fractures in patients. Fractures of the hip, lumbar spine, and wrist are the most common, and these fractures can greatly impact a patient’s quality of life. Certain fractures, such as hip fractures, can lead to mobility issues for some elderly individuals if they do not undergo surgical treatment, increasing the risk of prolonged bed rest, infections, and higher mortality rates. These outcomes can be avoided by prioritizing bone health from the start and by diagnosing and treating osteoporosis early.
