pubmed:abstractText |
The decrease in estrogen levels with the use of aromatase inhibitors results in an increase in the rate of bone remodelling. This result in an acceleration of bone loss, and probably to an increase in the risk of fractures. The risk of fracture is particularly high in the older woman and in the woman with a low bone mineral density. We have a number of proven treatments for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis and it is likely that some of these, particularly bisphosphonates, could be effective at preventing bone loss with aromatase inhibitors.
