Age-Related Osteoporosis is a bone condition characterized by a gradual loss of bone density and deterioration of bone tissue, primarily affecting elderly individuals. As people age, bone resorption (breakdown) outpaces bone formation, leading to weakened bones and an increased risk of fractures, particularly in the spine, hips, and wrists. Factors such as hormonal changes, decreased calcium absorption, and a sedentary lifestyle contribute to this condition. Women, especially postmenopausal women, are more susceptible. Diagnosis involves bone density scans, and preventive measures include adequate calcium and vitamin D intake, weight-bearing exercises, and lifestyle modifications. Treatment may involve medications to strengthen bones and reduce fracture risk. Age-related osteoporosis underscores the importance of proactive bone health measures and regular screenings, especially in the aging population, to prevent fractures and maintain overall skeletal integrity.
