Osteoporosis, a bone-thinning disease, is a major public health problem that poses a threat
to the health and quality of life to as many as 25 million Americans. (2) The 1.5 million
fractures each year that result from osteoporosis cause pain, disability, immobility and social
isolation, affecting quality of life and threatening the ability of people to live independently.

of breast, uterine, and ovarian cancer. (6) The annual direct and indirect costs of osteoporosis
