Condition known as Osteopenia

Condition known as Osteopenia. There was a time when no one talked about Osteopenia. In fact, Osteopenia did not exist.

Oh, there was a condition  called, Osteoporosis which means 'porous bones'. Osteoporosis is a significant condition. After all your bones hold up your whole body. They are supposed to be solid....not porous. 


Porous bones could break quite easily. Medical doctors were concerned about Osteoporosis because they did not want to see the bones of their patients breaking easily...... from light or unexpected pressure.

Before the 1990s no one, not even physicians talked about Osteopenia. The medical world did not even have a Condition known as Osteopenia.

And no, it was not the case that some new germ or virus entered the world. If fact, Osteopenia came into existence during a meeting of medical scientists! Some might say that Osteopenia was not discovered, it was created...created by a pharmaceutical company called Merck.
