Osteoporosis is a condition where bones become thin, weak and fragile, such that even a minor bump or accident can cause a broken bone. Osteoporosis occurs when the bones lose minerals quicker than the body can replace them. They then lose strength and break easier. 

​

There are usually no signs or symptoms of Osteoporosis, therefore most people don't realise that they have osteoporosis until they experience a fracture. Treatment for Osteoporosis can include diet and lifestyle changes, as well as medication. Treatment depends on your overall risk of fracture.
