Osteoporosis is a bone disease that involves bone density loss. More women are affected by osteoporosis than men due to the hormonal factors involved with the disease. Osteoporosis is linked to endocrine conditions, menopause, reproductive system disorders, hereditary disorders such as Marfan’s syndrome, and rheumatoid arthritis. Left untreated, osteoporosis will lead to fractures of the spine, hips, and extremities due to weakened bone structure. Treatment of osteoporosis usually involves the use of calcium and vitamin D supplements and hormone replacement therapies. Medications such as Fosamax or Actonel are used to treat high-risk patients. Can you win social security disability or SSI disability benefits on the basis of osteoporosis?
