Osteoporosis is a medical condition characterized by reduced bone density and strength, increasing fracture risk, especially in older adults. It results from an imbalance between bone resorption and formation, often progressing silently until a fracture occurs. The term combines Greek roots for bone and porous, conveying the idea of porous bones.
