Postmenopausal Bone Loss
Postmenopausal bone loss speeds after estrogen declines—combine DXA, nutrition, loading, fall prevention, and clinician-guided therapy when indicated.
Postmenopausal bone loss accelerates when estrogen falls—resorption outpaces formation for several years, widening osteoporosis risk. Calcium and vitamin D remain essential but may not fully offset hormonal change; FRAX and DXA guide medication decisions.
Resistance and impact exercise, protein near 1. 2 g/kg or clinician targets, and fall prevention still help.
Common questions
-
Does hormone therapy always stop bone loss?
Menopausal hormone therapy can protect bone in selected candidates—decisions are individualized for risks and benefits with your clinician, not self-started.
