Osteoporosis has been dubbed the "silent disease of the twenty-first century," posing a public health issue because of its severity, chronicity and progression, primarily affecting postmenopausal women and older individuals. An imbalance between bone resorption and bone formation defines osteoporosis. It is diagnosed using a variety of techniques, including bone density tests and dual X-rays. This pathology's treatment focuses on various areas. Pharmacological treatments, on the other hand, are distinguished by the addition of anti-resorptive medicines, as well as new biologic techniques such as stem cell transplantation and the use of reactive hydrogels. Non-pharmacological treatments, on the other hand, are related to lifestyle changes that should be implemented, such as physical activity, diet and the cessation of dangerous habits such as excessive alcohol consumption or smoking. This study aims to supply a summary of the theoretical basis for bone biology, existing methods for diagnosing and treating osteoporosis and the development of new tactics.
