Osteoporosis, often referred to as the "silent thief of bones," is defined by the National Institutes of Health as the "skeletal disorder characterized by compromised bone strength predisposing a person to an increased risk for fracture."1 Fragility fractures, which result from minor or unnoticed trauma, are more than just physical injuries; they have far-reaching consequences that not only lead to severe pain and reduced mobility but also affect aspects like quality of life, healthcare costs, and overall societal well-being. Literature shows that in postmenopausal women after hip fractures, the expected survival decreases from 12 to 20%.2.
