Estrogen plays a crucial role in maintaining bone density and strength by inhibiting bone resorption, the process by which bone is broken down. A deficiency in estrogen, particularly during menopause, can lead to increased bone loss and a condition known as osteoporosis, which results in weaker, more fragile bones. Therefore, rather than causing bone softening, estrogen is important for preserving bone health.
