Are you at risk for developing osteoporosis?
Recommendations
The National Osteoporosis Foundation recommends that the following individuals be evaluated for osteoporosis:
 | All postmenopausal women under age 65 who answer "Yes" to 1 or more significant risk factors (besides menopause) |
| All women age 65 and older regardless of additional risk factors should have a bone mineral density test |
| Postmenopausal women who have had fractures |
Risk Survey
By taking the Risk Survey and showing your answers to your doctor on your next visit, you can offer important feedback on what degree of risk you may have of developing osteoporosis.
