Osteopenia

There is a rapid loss of bone mass due to declining estrogen levels during perimenopause and postmenopause. This  leads to reduced bone density, and increased fracture risk. Insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies (calcium, vitamin D, magnesium, and K2) further accelerate bone loss.

Diagnosis involves:
DEXA Scans
Hormone
 Nutrient

A functional approach includes bone-supportive nutrition, resistance training, and supplements like vitamin D, K2, magnesium, collagen, and boron. Hormonal treatment with bio-identical estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone helps preserve bone density and strength.
