Bone Density Loss

Bone density loss refers to a decrease in the amount of mineral content in bones, making them weaker and more susceptible to fractures. This process can occur due to aging, hormonal changes (especially in women after menopause), lack of physical activity, poor nutrition (especially low calcium and vitamin D), and certain medical conditions or medications. As bone density declines, bones can become fragile, leading to conditions like osteoporosis. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle with weight-bearing exercises, a balanced diet, and regular check-ups can help manage and prevent significant bone density loss.
