Bone health is a crucial aspect of women’s health, especially during perimenopause, which is a biological transition phase from the reproductive age to menopause. During this phase, women undergo significant hormonal changes that can lead to a decline in bone density and an increased risk of osteoporosis however, with proper awareness and care, it is possible to maintain strong and healthy bones.
In an interview with HT Lifestyle, Dr Ajith KN, Medical Director, Clinical and Imaging Services at Neuberg Diagnostics, shared, “Bone health is essential for women’s overall health and well-being. Perimenopausal women should be aware of the importance of exercise, fall prevention, nutrition and screening for osteoporosis. By taking these steps, women can maintain strong and healthy bones and reduce the risk of fractures and other complications associated with osteoporosis.”
