Geriatric osteoporosis is defined as osteoporosis that occurs in older adults over the age of 70. Primary osteoporosis is a degenerative disease that occurs with age and is characterized by an absolute decrease in bone mass per unit volume, a change in quality, a decrease in bone density, an increase in brittleness and a tendency to fracture. The osteoporosis we are talking about is generally referred to the occurrence of this osteoporosis in people over 70 years old.
