Abstract
Background: Many factors can cause changes in bone mass density (BMD) in women with postmenopausal osteopenia. Aim: Determine factors associated with changes in BMD in postmenopausal women with osteopenia with the most influential risk factors within 1 year.Methods: Survey was conducted on 38 patients who were included in the inclusion criteria with a cross-sectional study analysis and had BMD data for the last 2 years, body mass index, and conducted interviews for physical activity, age of menopause, and duration of menopause. Blood samples were also taken to check total calcium levels, vitamin D levels and estrogen levels. Finally, patients are followed for up to 1 week for daily nutrition records. The relationship between these factors and changes in BMD was analyzed using Pearson's or Spearman's test. The analysis result was considered significant if p<0.05.Results: There was no significant relationship between body mass index, menopause duration, physical activity, dietary calcium, serum calcium levels and serum estradiol levels on changes in BMD with p value > 0.05. However, there was a significant relationship between menopause onset and changes in ward mass density (r = 0,321, p = 0,04) and lumbal 1 (r = 0,333, p = 0,04), serum vitamin D levels and changes in great trochanter mass density (r = 0,336, p = 0,036), physical activity score and changes in ward mass density (r = -0,522, p < 0,01).Conclusion: Â menopause onset, vitamin D and physical activity are significantly associated with changes in BMD in female patients with postmenopausal osteopenia.

Osteoporosis is still an increasing health problem in Indonesia
Conclusion: menopause onset, vitamin D and physical activity are significantly associated with changes in bone mineral densitometry (BMD) in female patients with postmenopausal osteopenia
It is estimated that 28.7% of men and 32.3% of women have been diagnosed with osteoporosis by means of bone mineral densitometry (BMD).only a few of these diseases can be diagnosed because the population is scattered distribute throughout Indonesia and some of the 34 BMD machines are located in Jakarta.[1, 2]
Summary
Osteoporosis is still an increasing health problem in Indonesia. Osteoporosis often considered a disease of the elderly, but it turns out that this disease can occur at a young age. The total population of Indonesia reaches 237 million people and it is Suryana BPP, Megawanto NH, Rosandi R, et al Factors Associated with Changes in Bone-Mass Density in Female patients with Osteopenia Post Menopause. Many factors can cause bone mass density (BMD) changes in women with postmenopausal osteopenia.
