The originality of our study is the diagram. We demonstrated that the rate of progression was linear, and it can be used to establish an individual prognosis. The diagrams visualized 2 main distinct types. There was a significantly faster rate of progression in type B. In type A, rotary subluxation occurs during progression of the curvature. In type B, it seems to be the initial event. Menopause is a period of deterioration in type B.
