Graviditets- og amningsassocieret osteoporose

Pregnancy and lactation-associated osteoporosis is a rare but potentially debilitating condition characterised by vertebral and, less frequently, hip fractures during late pregnancy or the postpartum period. Due to symptom overlap with common pregnancy-related discomforts, diagnosis is often delayed. This paper synthesises current evidence regarding the pathophysiology, risk factors, diagnostics, and management strategies. Given the vulnerability of affected women, early diagnosis and individualised, multidisciplinary care are critical, although evidence-based treatment guidelines remain scarce, as argued in this review.
