OSTEOPOROSIS:
-
lessening
cospicua of the bony mass,
-
increase
of the bony embrittlement,
-
greater
risk of fracture.
The
Osteoporosis is due to:
-
iperactivity
of the Osteoclasti (greater bony resorption),
-
smaller
activity of the Osteoblasti (smaller bony formation).
OSTEOPENIA:
it begins them reduction of the bony mass.
OSTEOPOROSIS
- risk factors:
-
Feminine
sex,
-
Race
white woman,
-
Poor
diet of calcium,
-
Premature
menopause,
-
Low
index of body mass,
-
Smoke,
-
Nulliparità.
Postmenopausal
OSTEOPOROSIS:
due to the deficiency of
estrogens that derives from the cessation of the ovarian function.
The ESTROGENS are
effective in refraining the postmenopausal bony loss and therefore in reducing
the frequency of the osteoporotiche fractures in the woman.
The
SUBSTITUTIVE HORMONAL THERAPY is the more suitable therapy for the prevention
and the treatment of the postmenopausal osteoporosis.
5 therapy years reduce
the fracture risk considerably:
reduced risk of 50% for
the fractures of Colles and of the hip,
and of the 70-80% for the
vertebral fractures.
