Osteoporosis & Fracture Prevention after Menopause। मीनोपॉज के बाद हड्डियां कमजोर - कैसे बचें।

Preventing bone loss is an important concern for women in the menopause and during post-menopausal stages. Menopause significantly speeds bone loss and increases the risk for osteoporosis. Research indicates that up to 20% of bone loss can happen during these stages and approximately 1 in 10 women over the age of 60 are affected by osteoporosis worldwide. Osteoporosis is a disorder associated with low bone mass where bones become naturally weak, increasing the likelihood of fractures (bone breaks). Bones in the hip, spine, and wrist are especially prone to fragility fractures in older adults with little or no evidence of trauma. Osteoporosis is more common in women because menopause can accelerate bone loss causing the bones to break down more quickly than it is formed. It is never too late to be treated for osteoporosis, and in fact, older women are more likely to respond better to treatment if given early. The goal of your treatment plan is to decrease fractures associated with osteoporosis and maintain good bone health. Lifestyle changes that can improve bone health are: Customized exercise regimen that support proper maintenance of the skeleton, including resistance, balance and weight- bearing exercises Eat a balanced diet that include: calcium-Vitamin D and Calcium rich foods, dairy products fortified with vitamin D, and fish if possible Sunshine is important to keep vitamin D levels adequate Preventing obesity will help keep bones strong Avoid smoking Limit alcohol consumption In case of any confusion , ask in comment box or Email at: [email protected] DISCLAIMER: The information provided on this channel and its videos is for general purposes only and should not be considered as professional advice.
