Hello aspirant,

Estrogen and parathtoid harmones which play a significant role in osteroporosis it is caused by the deficiency of estrogen and also by the oxcessive activity of parathromones and estrogen is the harmone helps in the formation of the bone cells and it also helps to promote the die activity of osteroblast and this harmone inhibits osteroclast which does in destruction of the bone cells and parathromone promotes the mobalisation of calcium from the bones and that into the blood and this causes dimeneralisation and i think my suggestions and knowledge may be helpful to u.

Thank you!!!

Hello,

Vitamin D has a major role in regulating the Blood calcium levels. It can enhance the activity of either osteoclast cells or osteoblast cells. Vitamin D, when associated with calcitonin, increases the activity of osteoblast and promotes the bone formation. It would increase the formation of the matrix on which Calcium and phosphorous is deposited.

However, when Vitamin D is associated with parathyroid hormone, it would enhance the activity of osteoclast cells and promotes demineralization of the bones. When there is calcium deficiency in the blood, the above combination would activate the osteoclast cells.

Vitamin D exists in different chemical forms. It is derived from cholesterol. The Provitamin is 7-dihydroxycholesterol which is converted to Vitamin D by certain biological reactions happening in our body.

Hope this will help you

GOOD LUCK

Hi aspirant,

Estrogen and parathyroid hormone can play significant role in osteoporosis. It is caused due to the deficiency of estrogen and oxcessive activity of parathormones. Estrogen helps to promote die activity of osteoblast ( helps in the formation of bone cells) and inhibits osteoclast (destruction the bones of the body).

Hope it helps you.

Hello,

Osteoporosis is a bone disease that occurs when the body loses too much bone, makes too little bone, or both. As a result, bones become weak and may break from a fall or, in serious cases, from sneezing or minor bumps.  Certain hormone controls the maintenance of the minerals in the bones. As ageing occurs, there is loss of the bone density which is due to loss of the minerals from the bones. This is especially due to loss of calcium ions which is controlled by estrogen and parathormone.
