🧠 Menopause and Osteoporosis: How Hormonal Changes Affect Bone Health
Menopause and Osteoporosis, a condition where bones become thinner and more fragile, increasing fracture risk. It’s far more common in postmenopausal women — and the connection comes down to hormonal changes, particularly the drop in estrogen.
🔬 Estrogen’s Role in Bone Health
Bone is a living tissue, constantly undergoing remodelling — a balance of bone breakdown (resorption) and bone building (formation).
-
Osteoclasts → Break down old bone tissue
-
Osteoblasts → Build new bone tissue
Estrogen helps maintain this balance by limiting bone breakdown and supporting new bone formation.
📉 What Happens After Menopause
When estrogen levels drop sharply:
-
Osteoclast activity increases → More bone breakdown.
-
Osteoblast activity slows → Less bone formation.
-
Net effect → Accelerated bone loss, especially in the first 5–7 years post-menopause.
This can happen silently, with no symptoms until a fracture occurs.
🧬 Other Contributing Factors
-
Lower progesterone → Can affect bone-building activity.
-
Reduced calcium absorption → Linked to lower estrogen.
-
Lifestyle factors → Inactivity, smoking, alcohol, and poor diet worsen bone loss.
