Postmenopausal osteoporosis

Postmenopausal osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disorder that affects females following the cessation of ovarian function It is characterized by low bone mineral density and the microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue, driven primarily by estrogen deficiency that accelerates osteoclast-mediated bone resorption beyond the compensatory capacity of osteoblastic bone formation This progressive uncoupling of bone remodeling leads to structural fragility and a substantially heightened susce...

It is characterized by low bone mineral density and the microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue, driven primarily by estrogen deficiency that accelerates osteoclast-mediated bone resorption beyond the compensatory capacity of osteoblastic bone formation This progressive uncoupling of bone remodeling leads to structural fragility and a substantially heightened susceptibility to low-trauma or fragility fractures, most commonly involving the vertebrae, hip, and distal radius
