Osteoporosis is a medical condition characterized by weakened bones, making them more susceptible to fractures and breaks. It occurs when the body loses too much bone mass or doesn't produce enough new bone tissue, often due to factors like aging, hormonal changes, lack of calcium or vitamin D, and a sedentary lifestyle. The condition is often asymptomatic until a fracture occurs, making early detection and prevention crucial. Treatments include medications, lifestyle changes, and dietary adjustments to strengthen bones and reduce fracture risk.
