At HealthyWomen, we want to help you better understand osteoporosis, why it's more common in women than men, and theWhile women who are experiencing menopause are at greater risk of developing osteoporosis because of lower estrogen levels, it's a good idea for women who have not entered menopause to take steps to avoid getting the condition.
Although osteoporosis is common, it's not a given. We hope these resources can help you keep your bones healthy.
