Osteoporosis - If you suffer from this ill, really how ill.
How ill If There's Disease in the Human Body. How sick, if you have Osteoporosis disease. Activity we would be distracted and uncomfortable. If you have osteoporosis, really how ill. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that has the properties typical of low bone mass, accompanied by bone micro-architecture and decrease the quality of bone tissue that can eventually lead to bone fragility.
About 80% percent of people with osteoporosis are women, including young women who experienced cessation of the menstrual cycle (amenorrhea). The loss of estrogen after menopause increases the risk of osteoporosis.
Have you ever seen a hunchback old lady? The old woman must have suffered from the disease osteoporosis which causes bones to his back arched. Osteoporosis does not show signs of a real physical loss or cracking to occur in old age. Really how ill.
Osteoporosis is often called bone disease was attacking this woman since I was young. Undeniably osteoporosis in women is influenced by the hormone estrogen. It's just how ill. However, because of new symptoms appear after age 50, osteoporosis is not easily detected early.
Although osteoporosis is more common in women, men still have a risk of osteoporosis. Just as in women, osteoporosis in men are also influenced estrogen. The difference is, men do not experience menopause, osteoporosis, so it comes more slowly.

This ill, number of old age in Indonesia is expected to rise 414 percent in the period 1990-2025, whereas in postmenopausal women in 2000 accounted for 15.5 million will increase to 24 million in 2015. Imagine how large the population that can be at risk of osteoporosis.
TYPES AND CAUSES OF OSTEOPOROSIS
Postmenopausal osteoporosis, ill occurs because of lack of estrogen (the main hormone in women), who helped organize the transport of calcium into the bone in women.
- Usually the symptoms occur in women aged between 51-75 years, but could begin to emerge more quickly or more slowly.
- Not all women have the same risk for postmenopausal osteoporosis, a white female and eastern regions more easily suffer from this disease than black women.
- Senile means that this situation only occurs in the elderly. This disease usually occurs at the age above 70 years and 2 times more likely to strike women. Women often suffer from senile and postmenopausal osteoporosis.
Secondary osteoporosis. This ill, experienced less than 5% of people with osteoporosis, which is caused by other medical conditions or by drugs.
- This disease can be caused by chronic renal failure and hormonal disorders (particularly thyroid, parathyroid and adrenal) and drugs (eg corticosteroids, barbiturates, anti-seizure and excessive thyroid hormone).
- Excessive alcohol consumption and smoking can aggravate this situation.
Idiopathic juvenile osteoporosis. This ill, is a type of osteoporosis of unknown cause.
- It occurs in children and young adults who have elevated and normal hormone function, normal levels of vitamins and has no obvious cause of bone fragility.
Symptoms of this ill (oteoporosis)
Bone density decreases slowly (especially in patients with senile osteoporosis), so at first osteoporosis causes no symptoms. Some people with this ill have no symptoms.
If bone density is reduced so that the bone collapses or destroyed, it will develop bone pain and deformity.
Collapse of the spine cause chronic back pain. Brittle spine collapses spontaneously or because of minor injuries.
Usually the pain arises suddenly and felt in certain areas of the back, which will increase the pain if the patient standing or walking.
If touched, the area will be sore, but usually this pain will disappear gradually after several weeks or several months.
If several vertebrae broken, it will form an abnormal curvature of the spine (dowager's hump), which causes muscle tension and ill.
Other bones can be broken, which is often caused by a mild pressure or because jatuh.Salah one of the most serious fractures are hip fractures.
It is also common is a broken arm bone (radius) in the area persambungannya with the wrist, called a Colles fracture. Moreover, in patients with osteoporosis, fractures tend to heal slowly.

Prevention of this ill (osteoporosis)
* Maintain or increase bone density by consuming enough calcium.
* Perform exercise with weights.
* Consuming drugs (for certain people).
Consuming adequate amounts of calcium in a highly effective, especially before the achievement of maximum bone density (approximately age 30 years).
Drink 2 glasses of milk and extra vitamin D every day, can increase bone density in middle-aged woman who previously did not get enough calcium. We recommend that all women take calcium tablets every day, the recommended daily dose is 1.5 grams of calcium.
Load exercise (eg walking and climbing stairs) would increase bone density. Swimming does not increase bone density.
Estrogen helps maintain bone density in women and is often taken along with progesterone.
Estrogen replacement therapy is most effective start in 4-6 years after menopause, but if it just started over 6 years after menopause, it can still slow down bone loss and reduce fracture risk.
Raloxifene is an estrogen-like new drugs, which may be less effective than estrogen in preventing bone fragility, but has no effect on the breast or uterus.
To prevent osteroporosis, bisphosphonates (eg alendronate), can be used alone or in conjunction with hormone replacement therapy.
