Easy fracturing of the bones are the result of demineralization of the bone.
Demineralization of the bones is when the bones have a lowered amount of minerals in the bone. Phosphate and Calcium is lowered in the bone and causes the person to have reduced bone strength.
parathyroid hormone
Excessive production of parathyroid hormone (PTH) can lead to demineralization of bones and increase the risk of spontaneous fractures. This condition is known as hyperparathyroidism.
The medical term for the removal of lime salts from osseous tissue is "demineralization." This process can weaken bones and lead to conditions like osteoporosis.
That can be calcitonin or parathamone. They regulate Ca and phosphate levels

inorganic minerals replace the bones and shells in fossils. However, some recent demineralization experiments have indicated that some original connective tissue may remain, even in very old fossils.

You can get shorter as a result of weak bones if the vertebrae in the spine collapse.
