Menopause & Osteoporosis

Menopause is a natural biological process characterized by the permanent cessation of menstrual periods. The transition to menopause occurs in three phases:

  1. Perimenopause: This initial phase marks the beginning of the transition, during which a woman's body starts to undergo hormonal changes.
  2. Menopause: This phase is defined as having experienced 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period.
  3. Postmenopause: This phase generally occurs 24 to 36 months after the last period, during which symptoms often begin to subside.

Menopause typically occurs between the ages of 49 and 52. Medical professionals confirm menopause when a woman has not experienced any vaginal bleeding for a year, which is often accompanied by a decrease in hormone production from the ovaries.One common concern associated with menopause is osteoporosis, a condition that leads to weakened bones and an increased risk of fractures. Osteoporosis results from a loss of bone mass and strength, leading to porous bones. While the exact cause of osteoporosis is not fully understood, it is particularly prevalent in postmenopausal women and occurs more frequently in women than in men.

There are two primary types of osteoporosis:

  1. Type I Osteoporosis: Also known as postmenopausal osteoporosis, this type occurs after menopause when estrogen levels drop significantly. It primarily affects trabecular bones within the hard cortical bone.
  2. Type II Osteoporosis: Known as senile osteoporosis, this type typically affects individuals around the age of 70 and results in the thinning of both trabecular and cortical bones.
