Title: Why do women experience the symptoms of osteoporosis more acutely than men?
Post by: lisa_lordes on Apr 19, 2017
Why do women experience the symptoms of osteoporosis more acutely than men?
A) Men take in more calcium in their diet, so they can't get osteoporosis.
B) Women have less muscle mass and don't exercise as much.
C) Women have less bone mass and produce less estrogen later in life; these factors accelerate calcium loss.
D) Men don't produce estrogen, so they don't rely on it as much as women do.
