Abstrak

Breast cancer, the most common hormone responsive cancer, is on a rise both globally and in India. With increased longevity of breast cancer survivors, addressing long-term complications such as osteoporosis is crucial. Several mechanisms contribute to the bone loss seen in breast cancer patients, including age, post-menopausal status, chemotherapy, and other adjuvant therapies received. Appropriate evaluation and counselling on the risks of therapy with aromatase inhibitors on bone health are much needed. Timely initiation of anti-resorptive medication can help improve bone mass, reduce the incidence of fractures, and improve quality of life.
