Abstract
Due to the increase in life expectancy in all countries, the stratum of elderly and senile people, who often have osteoporosis (OP), is increasing. The fragility of the bone base of the skeleton in OP leads to frequent fractures of the spine, femoral neck, bones of the forearm and other areas of the musculoskeletal system (IOS). The prevention of OP and its treatment are becoming a socio-economic problem, in the solution of which doctors of all specialties should take part. In the course of studying the problem of OP, there has been a departure from the traditional ideas about it as an age-related inevitability, and in women as a result of menopause. It is appropriate to mention that S.A. Reinberg [2] emphasized the polyetiology of OP.
