Your bones play an important role in keeping you strong and active. But as we age, it’s common to lose bone density—sometimes without even knowing it.
Osteopenia and osteoporosis are conditions that cause bones to become thin and brittle, making them more likely to break. These silent diseases often don’t cause symptoms until a fracture occurs.
A quick, painless DXA bone density scan can detect early signs of bone loss. This low-dose X-ray test looks at the strength of your hips and spine—areas most at risk for fracture.
Talk with your doctor about when it’s time for a scan and how the results can help guide your care.
