Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by low bone density and structural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to an increased risk of fractures. Osteoporosis does not always cause early signs or symptoms. Often you will only experience symptoms when the condition has advanced to the point where you break bones easily.

Common Symptoms Of Osteoporosis

  • Osteoporotic fractures can cause back pain, which may be sudden or develop gradually
  • The collapse of vertebrae due to osteoporosis can cause a loss in height over time.
  • Osteoporotic bones are more susceptible to fractures, especially in areas like the spine, hip, wrist, or ribs. Fractures may occur due to minimal trauma or even normal daily activities, such as bending, lifting, or falling from a standing height.

Late signs and symptoms of osteoporosis

Signs of osteoporosis become obvious until the condition is quite advanced. Here are some potential signs and symptoms of late-stage osteoporosis.

Spinal involvement

If osteoporosis affects the bones in the spine, you may notice:

  • Hunched or stooped posture
  • Back pain
  • Reduced height
  • Malformations in the spine

What Is This Condition?

Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by low bone density and structural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to an increased risk of fractures. It occurs when the body loses too much bone, produces too little bone, or both. The bones become weak and fragile, making them more prone to fractures, even with minor or routine activities. Osteoporosis often progresses silently without causing noticeable symptoms until a fracture occurs. It’s important to note that osteoporosis can develop in both men and women, but it is more common in postmenopausal women due to the decline in estrogen levels, which plays a protective role in bone health. Other risk factors for osteoporosis include advancing age, family history, low body weight, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, a sedentary lifestyle, and certain medical conditions or medications.

Common risk factors for osteoporosis include:

  • advancing age
  • bodyweight under 128 pounds
  • smoking
  • low levels of physical activity
  • a personal history of a fracture from a ground-level fall or minor trauma after age 40
  • being of white or Asian race
  • having experienced early menopause

People assigned female at birth have a higher chance of developing primary osteoporosis. People assigned male at birth have a lower risk of primary osteoporosis but an increased risk of developing secondary osteoporosis from medication or other underlying causes.

Certain other medical conditions can increase your risk of osteoporosis, including:

  • hyperparathyroidism
  • anorexia
  • malabsorption of nutrients
  • hyperthyroidism
  • overtreatment of hypothyroidism
  • chronic renal failure
  • Cushing syndrome
  • any disease that can lead to long-term immobilization
  • vitamin D deficiency
  • living with diabetes
  • a history of breast cancer

How Hormone Hub Treats It?

The first thing that we do to make sure that you get the right treatment is by getting certain tests done which would mostly include but not limit to CBC, Thyroid panel, Hormone Assay, Testosterone levels, androgen assay, sugar levels, HbA1c, urine analysis, DHEA levels, Cortisol levels, Liver function tests, Lipid profile, Vitamin B12 and D levels, serum electrolytes, iron panel. On the basis of this, we take further treatment steps for Osteoporosis.

Hormone therapy can be used to treat osteoporosis, particularly in postmenopausal women. It involves the use of medications that contain hormones to help slow down bone loss and reduce the risk of fractures. The two main types of hormone therapy for osteoporosis are estrogen therapy and selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs).

  • Estrogen Therapy: Estrogen therapy is primarily used in postmenopausal women who have a significant risk of osteoporosis and are experiencing symptoms of menopause. Estrogen helps to maintain bone density and reduce bone loss. It can be administered in various forms such as pills, patches, creams, or vaginal rings. Estrogen therapy is effective in reducing the risk of fractures and improving bone density.
  • Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): SERMs are medications that have estrogen-like effects on bone tissue but have different effects in other parts of the body. They help to maintain bone density and reduce fracture risk. SERMs are particularly useful for postmenopausal women who cannot or prefer not to use estrogen therapy.

At HormoneHub, we utilize “the Elixir therapy” which is a holistic and multidimensional approach to balance the physiological hormones, overcome deficiencies, restore innate harmony, energize, rejuvenate and there by sustaining long term well-being. Our specialists in each segment inculcate the methodologies and techniques which one can practice lifetime and ensure the sustenance on own thereby.
