Understanding Osteoporosis — Your GP's Guide to Bone Health
Osteoporosis is a condition where bones lose density and become more likely to break. It often has no symptoms until a fracture happens, typically in the wrist, hip or spine.

A Doctor's Guide to Managing and Treating Osteoporosis
What is osteoporosis?
It is most common in women after menopause but also affects men. Risk factors include age, family history, low body weight, long-term steroid use, smoking and excess alcohol.
When to seek medical advice
See a GP if you have broken a bone after a minor fall, have lost height, or have risk factors. A DEXA scan measures bone density.
Available treatments
Bisphosphonates (alendronic acid, risedronate), denosumab injections, HRT, strontium ranelate and anabolic agents like teriparatide are used depending on risk and tolerance. Calcium and vitamin D are usually prescribed alongside.
What to expect
Fracture risk falls within the first year of treatment. DEXA scans are usually repeated every 2 to 5 years.
Self-care
Do weight-bearing and resistance exercise, eat calcium-rich foods, take vitamin D, avoid falls by keeping your home hazard-free and stop smoking.
How Prescriptsy compares providers
We compare available options using verifiable attributes, not clinical suitability. Only a doctor working for the chosen provider can make that assessment.
We consider indicative price and availability, the consultation and prescription route, and public information about the provider and its licences.
Prescriptsy may receive a fee after a referral. This does not change the user's price or determine the medical information we publish.
Prices, stock and terms can change. Always verify final details with the provider; display order is not medical advice or a treatment recommendation.
