CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC FEATURES OF OSTEOPOROSIS IN PERIMENOPAUSAL WOMEN AND METHODS FOR ITS EARLY DETECTION

Abstract

According to the WHO, osteoporosis ranks fourth among non-communicable diseases as a cause of disability and mortality. This article analyzes the results of a study conducted on 62 perimenopausal women. During the study, patients' hormonal status, calcium and vitamin D metabolism, and bone density indicators were examined. Based on the results obtained, a 10-parameter prognostic scale was developed, enabling early detection of osteoporosis risk.
