Remember men also suffer from osteoporosis and they need to be treated with Homeopathic HGH IGF1 and IGF2 to prevent bone demineralization as well as women.
Few older men with hip fractures indicative of osteoporosis are tested or treated for the bone-thinning disease, which puts them at risk for debilitating illness and death, a study suggests. 
The researchers and other osteoporosis experts blame the findings on doctors' and patients' unawareness that the disease does not only affect women. 
"This is a very new concept in the medical field that in fact men get osteoporosis, too," said lead author Gary Kiebzak, chief research scientist at the Center for Orthopaedic Research and Education at St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital in Houston. 
Of the estimated 10 million Americans afflicted with the disease, about 2 million are men. But the percentage of men affected rises with age, and those studied were aged 80 on average. Still, just 4.5 percent of them had been prescribed osteoporosis treatment after they were discharged from a hospital following their fractures. Up to five years later, only 11 percent had had a bone-density test and just 27 percent were using any kind of osteoporosis treatment, the researchers found. 
"Thirty-two percent of the men died within a year of their fractures. Many deaths were likely from ailments linked to the weakened condition of being immobilized by the fractures, which may have been preventable with treatment for osteoporosis or underlying conditions that can cause it."

Reuters Health   ABSTRACT 

WESTPORT, CT (Reuters Health) – Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) significantly increases bone mineral density (BMD) in clinically important skeletal regions of frail elderly women, according to a report published in the August 15th issue of The Journal of the American Medical Association. 

HRT has been established as an effective method of preventing osteoporosis, but the current findings indicate that it has a protective effect in elderly women who are already considered physically frail. 
Dr. Dennis T. Villareal, from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, and colleagues assessed the bone-related outcomes of 67 women with mild to moderate physical frailty, 75 years of age or older, who were randomized to receive HRT or placebo for 9 months. The HRT regimen consisted of conjugated estrogen at a dose of 0.625 mg/day and trimonthly medroxyprogesterone acetate at a dose of 5 mg/day for 13 days.
HRT produced significantly greater increases in the BMD of the lumbar spine and total hip than did placebo, the researchers determined. HRT also resulted in significantly greater decreases in serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase levels and urine N-telopeptide levels.
“HRT has significant osteogenic effects in very old, physically frail women,” the investigators conclude. “However, fracture risk in very old women is due to multiple factors in addition to low BMD, including sensory and neuromuscular impairments, medications, and environmental hazards. Further research is therefore necessary to elucidate the effectiveness of HRT…in reducing fracture rates and postponing disability.”
