Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Osteoporosis is a disease in which bones become fragile and more likely to break (fracture).

Detailed explanation-2: -Overview. Osteoporosis causes bones to become weak and brittle-so brittle that a fall or even mild stresses such as bending over or coughing can cause a fracture. Osteoporosis-related fractures most commonly occur in the hip, wrist or spine. Bone is living tissue that is constantly being broken down and replaced.

Detailed explanation-3: -As you age, your body may reabsorb calcium and phosphate from your bones instead of keeping these minerals in your bones. This makes your bones weaker. When this process reaches a certain stage, it is called osteoporosis. Many times, a person will fracture a bone before they even know they have bone loss.

Detailed explanation-4: -Brittle bone disease is not to be confused with osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is the loss of bone density, which does not result in the abnormal formation of bones. However, both conditions cause bone fractures.
