In osteoporosis, there is typically a decrease in hormones that promote bone formation, such as estrogen in women and testosterone in men, leading to increased bone resorption and decreased bone density. Additionally, parathyroid hormone (PTH) can increase in response to low calcium levels, further promoting bone loss. Overall, the imbalance between bone resorption and formation due to hormonal changes contributes significantly to the development of osteoporosis.
