Bone loss doesn’t happen all at once, it follows a timeline.
From your 30s to postmenopause, your bone density is constantly shifting, and the menopausal transition is the most critical window to protect it.
Here’s what most women don’t realize:
Up to 20% of total lifetime bone loss can occur in the first 5 years after menopause.
But with the right strategy, you can protect your bones, strength, and long-term mobility.
Hormone therapy (HT) is one of the most effective tools for preventing bone loss in the menopausal transition. It:
✓ Reduces fracture risk
✓ Slows bone turnover
✓ Helps maintain bone architecture
It’s not used to treat osteoporosis, but it’s incredibly protective for the right candidates, especially when paired with strength training, adequate protein, vitamin D, and lifestyle support.
Your bones are your foundation.
And it is never too early (or too late) to start supporting them.
