These old bones of mine


Taking care of bone health in the elderly – a focus on osteoporosis.

MRS WLL, a 60-year-old Chinese woman, sees her general practitioner for her annual check up. She has been in good general health for the past several years. She experienced menopause in her early 50s and was given hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for her menopausal symptoms; and for the prevention of osteoporosis. She is currently not on any chronic medications.
