TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Prevention and treatment of osteoporosis in women JO - Menopause international A1 - Al-Azzawi, Farook A1 - Barlow, David A1 - Hillard, Tim A1 - Studd, John A1 - Williamson, John A1 - Rees, Margaret SP - 178 EP - 181 VL - 13 IS - 4 N2 - Osteoporosis affects one in three women. There has been some confusion among women and health professionals about the management of osteoporosis since the publication of the Women's Health Initiative and Million Women studies. This guidance regarding estrogen-based and non-estrogen-based treatments for osteoporosis responds to the controversies about the benefits and risks of individual agents. Treatment choice should be based on up-to-date evidence and targeted to individual women's needs.
