The treatment for osteoporosis typically involves a combination of lifestyle changes, medications, and other therapies. The primary goals of treatment are to slow down bone loss, prevent fractures, and improve overall bone health.
Osteoporosis is a medical condition characterized by low bone density and increased risk of fractures. Active and healthy aging requires understanding bone health, and ensuring your lifestyle promotes healthy bones will prevent your risk of osteoporosis or fracture.
Sometimes referred to as the “silent disease,” osteoporosis often progresses without any symptoms and people are unaware they have osteoporosis until a fracture occurs.
