Abstract
Osteoporosis affects millions of women around the world, but female athletes are at particular risk. These female athletes are at a higher risk due to the stress of their intensive workouts than the overall female population. In female athletes, the absence or suppression of menstruation results in a low peak bone mass, which weakens their bones. Combined with their physical activity, this domino effect dramatically increases their risk of stress fractures. Increased understanding of the dangers of osteoporosis may help female athletes avoid or decrease the symptoms of the disease. The purpose of this study is to educate female athletes on the need for ssreening the techniques for identifying and treating this disease.
