Did You Have a Postmenopausal Bone Scan?
Osteoporosis is often associated with aging because bone density decreases with age. In postmenopausal women, the risk of osteoporosis increases due to hormonal changes. When estrogen hormone levels decrease, bone loss can accelerate. However, osteoporosis can also occur in men, especially due to aging, hormonal changes, low testosterone levels, or certain health conditions.
