Risk factors of low peak bone mass in Indonesian women

Background: Osteoporosis occurred in 64% of Indonesian women aged 60-64 years. The risk of osteoporosis can be reduced by achieving optimal peak bone mass in ages 25-32 years.

Some risk/protective factors were explored in a case-control study. Method: We recruited 25 cases, those with LPBM (T-score
