What is the relationship between estrogen and osteoclast function and how that relates to esteoperosis?
Estrogen helps regulate osteoclast activity, the cells responsible for breaking down bone tissue. A decrease in estrogen levels, such as during menopause, can lead to increased osteoclast activity and bone breakdown, contributing to osteoporosis. Estrogen plays a key role in maintaining bone density by balancing the activity of osteoclasts and osteoblasts, the cells that build bone tissue.
How can estrogen help osteoporosis?
Exercise increases bone strength. Without getting too long and drawn out your body reacts to the micro fractures (no, not actual breaks in the bone) along the bone cells by reinforcing them with more calcium. This creates a cycle by which, over time, the bones become stronger than before the person exercised.
