๐ง Menopause and Osteoporosis: How Hormonal Changes Affect Bone Health
Menopause and Osteoporosis, a condition where bones become thinner and more fragile, increasing fracture risk. Itโs far more common in postmenopausal women โ and the connection comes down to hormonal changes, particularly the drop in estrogen.
๐ฌ Estrogenโs Role in Bone Health
Bone is a living tissue, constantly undergoing remodelling โ a balance of bone breakdown (resorption) and bone building (formation).
-
Osteoclasts โ Break down old bone tissue
-
Osteoblasts โ Build new bone tissue
Estrogen helps maintain this balance by limiting bone breakdown and supporting new bone formation.
๐ What Happens After Menopause
When estrogen levels drop sharply:
-
Osteoclast activity increases โ More bone breakdown.
-
Osteoblast activity slows โ Less bone formation.
-
Net effect โ Accelerated bone loss, especially in the first 5โ7 years post-menopause.
This can happen silently, with no symptoms until a fracture occurs.
๐งฌ Other Contributing Factors
-
Lower progesterone โ Can affect bone-building activity.
-
Reduced calcium absorption โ Linked to lower estrogen.
-
Lifestyle factors โ Inactivity, smoking, alcohol, and poor diet worsen bone loss.
