Osteoporosis as a Problem in Climacteric Period (Osteoporosis sebagai Problema Klimakterium)

---

Bone density loss which causes osteoporosis may occur as a consequence of any disturbance of the hypothalamic-hypophysis-avarial axis. In the climacterium, this disturbance is a natural occurrence bringing osteoporosis as a serious problem for women in this period. Osteoporotic fractures may be predicted using special radiological techniques, such as dual photon absorptiometry (DPA) and dual energy x-ray (DEXA). As osteoporosis is caused by astrogen deficiency, it is logical to treat osteoporotic patients with estrogens in the form of oral, transdermal or percutaneous implants supplementation. Non estrogen treatment with calcitonin or biphosphonates is still an important alternative, especially where estrogens are contra indicated.
