About this listen

Osteoporosis is a disease that takes years and even decades to develop. Up to 40% of post-menopausal women are affected who have a lifetime risk of fracture of ~40%. Men aged 60 have a 25% lifetime risk of an osteoporotic fracture. Evidence also shows that patients health significantly deteriorates following a significant fracture.

The best treatment for osteoporosis is prevention. We discuss this disease, lifestyle, diagnosis, and management with a panel of experts at COMBATT: Comprehensive Osteoporosis Management workshop, at the Adelaide Convention Centre in February 2025.

This is the story of osteoporosis.
