Return To Osteoporosis FAQ Archive   Are women more affected by osteoporosis than men? Answered By Editor Yes. Studies have found that about 80% of Americans who have osteoporosis are women. This means there are approximately 8 million women affected and only 2 million men. This is because women suffer estrogen loss during the menopausal stage which contributes to osteoporosis. You also have to consider the fact that osteoporosis can strike at any age. keywords: Osteoporosis | Osteoporosis Disease | Osteopenia | Bone Density | Bone Loss | Women | Menopause Dexa Bone Densitometry Osteoporosis Natural Remedies
