Abstract

OSTEOPOROSIS is an increasing important health problem in the world. The diagnosis of OSTEOPOROSIS is made by determining that the patient has low BONE DENSITY, usually by a Dual Energy X-ray Absortiometry (DEXA) measurement. In order to reveal the prevalence of OSTEOPOROSIS in 20-69 years old WOMEN in Bushehr port using DEXA measurements in three parts of femoral sites and lumbar (L2-L4) area, 588 females from 13 clusters were randomly selected. The mean of bone mineral densities were 1.005 (0.171) and 0.794 (0.147) gram/cm2 in lumbar and femoral areas, respectively. The bone mineral densities decreased by increasing in age (p<0.001). The prevalence of osteopenia and OSTEOPOROSIS were 23.9 and 3.2 percent in lumbar area and 16.5 and 1.5 percent in femoral area; respectively. The age of MENOPAUSE and body mass index (BMI) had significant association with OSTEOPOROSIS and osteopenia. In conclusion, the prevalence of osteopenia and OSTEOPOROSIS in 20-69 years old WOMEN in Bushehr port is lower than the other populations in America, Europe and Tehran.
