Osteoporosis is a disease that weakens the bones. Weakened bones are more likely to fracture (break). Osteoporosis can affect anyone. But those most at risk are postmenopausal people who were assigned female at birth.
Osteoporosis is a disease in which bones become porous and weak. As they lose strength, they are more likely to break. Bones in the spine, hip, wrist, pelvis, and upper arm are particularly at risk of fracture in people with osteoporosis.
