What is osteoporosis? Osteoporosis
is a condition characterized by weak and fragile bones. When a person has osteoporosis,
bones can become brittle, so that activities like bent, lift >> << vacuum or coughing can lead to destruction. In most cases, brittle and weak bones
due to a low level, >> << phosphorus and other minerals. Pregnancy associated osteoporosis
first reported more than forty years ago. While researchers
identified four after pregnancy in patients with varying degrees of spinal osteoporosis. In 1955, researchers reported that five women who suffered broken bones after birth >>. << While other cases of pregnancy associated osteoporosis since
defined research environment of pregnancy and bone have offered conflicting results, including
no change in bone density, and even increases in certain places. This
seems that if the pregnancy associated osteoporosis there is probably enough
rare. (By 1996, eighty cases were reported in the literature). Also,
, provided that it is difficult to adequately investigate, given the inability to perform
parent radiological examinations. Pregnancy related
osteoporosis, usually defined in the postpartum period (56%) or third trimester >> << (41%). Affected women usually present with back pain, loss of height,
, and fractures of the spine. Pain and hip fracture of the femur are less common, but >> << have been reported. The condition usually appears during the first pregnancy
usually temporary and usually not repeated. It is not clear whether
, this disorder is the result of pregnancy or it is because pre-existing
conditions in pregnant women. Studies have shown that only a small portion of these patients
are risk factors, such as heparin or glucocorticoid exposure. In >> << On the other hand, it is possible that genetic factors play a role in the development >> << pregnancy related osteoporosis. In a study of Dunn and the staff, mothers
status of patients was significantly more fractures than controls. Theoretically
pregnancy associated osteoporosis is believed to have originated through stress on
maternal stores of calcium and increase urinary calcium excretion. However, >> << calcium absorption in the intestine increases during pregnancy - especially in the
second and third trimesters. The body reacts to fruit calcium requires
by increasing the total 1.25-dihydroxy D levels. These two mechanisms help
to meet the increased demand for calcium during pregnancy. Other physiological
, changes during pregnancy that can be actually protects bone include the third trimester
surge of estrogen and increased bone loading by weight. Obviously,
still much to learn about bone tissue during pregnancy and why some women
are prone to bone loss and even failure. Research
showed that most women with pregnancy associated osteoporosis
breastfeeding during diagnosis. The duration of breastfeeding ranged from
one week to seven months. Loss of bone mass is usually greater in skeletal sites
high concentration of spongy bone. Reduced bone density in three
five percent in the lumbar spine are common. Two
physiological cases can cause bone loss during lactation. First
there is an increased cheap lasix demand of calcium from maternal bone. This demand depends on the woman >> << to women based on the amount of breast milk and the duration >> << lactation. Second, because of elevated levels of prolactin, women who are breastfeeding
, usually hypoestrogenic state. Although
significant number of bone may be lost during breastfeeding, >> << bone loss is usually temporary. Studies have shown important trends
on bone loss during lactation, with full restoration of bone density at six months
after weaning. Kalkwarf and Shpekera said women still feel >> << restoring menstruation lose less bone during lactation and recovery more bone after weaning. Other studies have found similar trends in the loss of bone mass, with a full >> << restore bone density at six months after termination. Many research reports
increase bone density with increasing parity (
number of pregnancies a woman provides the last 28 weeks of pregnancy). The positive effect >> << to bone density was seen in both pre-and postmenopausal women. Parity
, seems to be a protective effect against damage as well. In the arm rest of the World
research, Paganini-Hill and others concluded that women with three or more
children were 30-40 percent lower risk of hip fractures compared
women to bear (those who have never given birth). Reliability of study >> << that use not bear women as a control was criticized, however. Many of us
suggested that women bear may not have relevant research with parity >> << they have demonstrated the ability to conceive and to support fetal growth and >> << of development. Such women may have a hormonal environment that prevents >> << concepts and affects bone density. . << >>
