Osteoporosis is more common among women than in men and in Iran half of women over the age of 45 and 90% of women over 75 are afflicted with it. The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge of Ardabil medical university Students toward Osteoporosis. Materials and Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study that has been performed over 258 Students of Ardabil medical university in different fields of study. The data collection method was a research based questionnaire including demographic data and questions about knowledge of Osteoporosis. Data were analyzed using statistical methods in SPSS version 16. P value of less than 5% was considered as significant. Results: 69. 5 percent of Students were female Students and the rest were male. 31. 2 percent had good knowledge, 61. 3 percent average knowledge and 7. 5 percent poor knowledge toward Osteoporosis.
