While most women with osteopenia during these periods experience a return to baseline bone density after weaning, some may remain at risk for fractures, particularly in cancellous bone. There are inconsistencies in current reports on fracture risk and appropriate treatment strategies. In this review, we discuss the existing evidence on the diagnosis, clinical presentation, and approaches for preventing and managing bone fragility in this unique population.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFractureFragilityGynecologyLactationOsteoporosispregnancyPregnancy- and lactation-related bone fragility: The hidden riskOther36121021310.52312/jdrs.2024.19572-s2.0-85213799939Q2001374059300001Q2
