Patient Q&A
Common questions in Orthopaedics & Joint Health
Can osteoporosis be reversed?
Bone density lost to osteoporosis can't be fully restored, but progression can be significantly slowed or stopped with medications, calcium, vitamin D and exercise.
How do I know if I have osteoporosis?
A DEXA scan (bone density test) is the gold standard. Women over 50 or post-menopause should get one routinely.
