Who’s at Risk for Bone Loss?
While anyone can experience declining bone density, some individuals face a higher likelihood of developing osteoporosis or related conditions. Risk factors include:
- Age 50 and older
- Family history of osteoporosis or fractures
- Postmenopausal women
- Low body weight or limited weight-bearing activity
- Long-term use of corticosteroids
- History of fractures from minor injuries
- Medical conditions that affect bone metabolism
Our team provides comprehensive assessment and personalized care for patients with bone loss or those seeking to prevent fractures before they occur.
