Osteoporosis causes & risk factors🦴
* 🦴 Osteoporosis means bones become weaker and more fragile.
* 👵 Commonly affects post-menopausal women and older individuals.
* 💊 Risk factors: age, calcium disorders, other metabolic bone diseases, and long-term steroid use.
* 🤕 Weak bones fracture easily—even mild actions like coughing or slips can cause breaks.
* 🩻 Bone strength can be checked using a DEXA scan, which helps diagnose osteoporosis.
* 🏥 Early treatment is available if bone strength is low; consult an endocrinologist for expert care. * 📍 Location:
