The logical reason for linking gynecology with bone health care is the importance of estrogen for achieving optimal bone density and its dominant role in the prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Bone health can thus be influenced by the choice of contraception, proper care for women with premature ovarian failure, rational choice of hormone replacement therapy during menopause, and early calcium and vitamin D supplementation in women at risk of osteoporosis. The role of gynecologists in bone health care has been confirmed by their current involvement in the screening and treatment of osteoporosis as primary care physicians.

Keywords: bone health, gynecologist, osteoporosis prevention, hormonal contraception, menopausal hormone therapy, bisphosphonates, denosumab.
