it's degradation of bone mass in all bones. calcium is depleted by not getting enough vitamin d and bones begin to get porous and brittle. however, ur body can manufacture D through exposure to UV rays but it's not enough as u get older. it mainly starts after age 40 and progresses through old age. this is why it's dangerous for elderly to break a bone, especially the hip. everybody must eat foods calcium rich and fortified vitamin D
Osteoporosis is systemic. Therefore, all your bones are affected.
