Solution

The role of hormones like estrogen in osteoporosis:

  1. Hormones are necessary for reproduction, but they are also necessary for the human body's other functions.
  2. They aid in the regulation of several bodily functions such as blood pressure, appetite, and sexual urge. Hormones are produced by endocrine glands
  3. Osteoporosis makes bones weaker and frailer. Some people are more vulnerable than others.
  4. Around the age of 35, you begin to lose bone slowly. Everyone experiences this, although some individuals develop osteoporosis and lose bone more faster than others.
  5. This puts them at a higher risk of fracture.
  6. Osteoporosis is a disorder that affects the bones by widening the gaps between them and causing them to lose strength and density.
