Bone loss is silent until it is not. The first symptom is often a fracture, without any other warning
Bone is not a static structure. It’s dynamic, responsive, and constantly regenerating. Every 7–10 years, we rebuild our entire skeleton. This happens through a process called bone remodeling.
Imagine a vibrant woman in her 60s who takes a fall and breaks her hip....this isn’t like a child breaking an arm. A hip fracture often means emergency surgery, rods and pins, rehab, pain, immobility, isolation, and frequently loss of independence.
The cost of rehabilitation is steep, and worse, up to 25% of women die within a year of a hip fracture, and up to 70% will lose their independence. And most never regain the function they had before.
