  2. Possible risk factors for Osteoporosis • Have you had breast cancer? • - Estrogen has protective effect on bones • Chemotherapy may cause loss of ovarian function and reduce estrogen levels. • Chemotherapy may have negative effect on bone • Breast CA may stimulate osteoclasts (cells that break down bone)

  3. Other risk factors: • Ethnicity • African American Women • Yes your BMD is higher than that of other ethnic counterparts • Osteoporosis is undiagnosed and undertreated in women • Risk for hip fracture doubles every 7 years • More likely to die from hip fracture • Many are lactose intolerant and don’t consume proper amounts of milk • Hispanic Women • 10% women over 50 have osteoporosis & 49% of women have low BMD but not low enough to categorize it as osteoporosis • Consume less calcium than needed • Disease common to both groups increases risk of osteoporosis

  4. Bone loss facts • Bone mass decreases by about 0.5% per year or more after the age of 40, regardless of sex or ethnicity • Muscle mass can decrease 3-5 % after 30 years old if you are inactive.

  5. What is a girl to do? • Pharmacological remedy – Rx from PCP • Physical Activity • Increase bone mass and strength • FFM is a strong determinant of bone with aging • Reduce risk of falling • Balance training
