Osteoporosis in Men: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline

Abstract: Osteoporosis in men causes significant morbidity and mortality. We recommend testing higher risk men [aged ≥70 and men aged 50-69 who have risk factors (e.g. low body weight, prior fracture as an adult, smoking, etc.)] using central dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Laboratory testing should be done to detect contributing causes. Adequate calcium and vitamin D and weight-bearing exercise should be encouraged; smoking and excessive alcohol should be avoided. Pharmacological treatment is recommended for men aged… Show more

“…Osteoporosis is a silent disease, where bone density gradually. The study showed that low serum levels of vitamin D 3 as seen in Table 2, have effect on osteoporosis and this consistent with other study (Watts et al, 2012). As well as lower serum vitamin D 3 in women with osteoporosis and uterine cancer, as shown in Table 3 and 4, probably for the same reason.…”

“…The normal urinary calcium level (UCL) accounts for 20% amount of daily intake. The excreted amount of calcium in urinary is positively correlated with the intestinal calcium absorption, and has an exponential relationship with the calcium intake [9,19]. So using of UCL to evaluate the index of calcium nutrition and bone absorption status may be an important tool in judging the calcium deficiency and BMD of geriatrics [6,20].…”

“…In a recent meta-analysis and in the FRAX algorithm hypogonadism was identified as a known disorder strongly associated with secondary osteoporosis [79,80]. According to the latest Endocrine Society's guidelines on osteoporosis total testosterone measurement is suggested in all men evaluated for osteoporosis or considered for pharmacological treatment with bone-active agents [81].…”
