Disorders of bone mineral density associated with pregnancy and lactation (a literature review)

Abstract

Traditionally, the problem of osteoporosis (OP) and osteopenia (OPe) in women is associated with the period of menopause. Increased bone fragility and osteoporotic fractures in pregnant, postpartum and breast-feeding women is less expected but the socio-economic burden can be significant. Neither the existing classification of OP nor the International Classification of Diseases separate OP associated with pregnancy, childbirth and lactation [1].
