Osteoporosis is the cause of 200,000 fractures, effecting one in three women and about one in ten men over the age of 50, every year, yet the disease exhibits no symptoms or complaints until the first fracture. This book will offer advice on how to assess whether you have or may be likely to develop osteoporosis by looking at family history and life style as well as explaining possible links between the disease and certain medications or hormone imbalances.
