Unveiling the Importance of Bone Density Screening for Women's Health

Bone Density Screening Welcome to Tri-County Primary Care! Today, we're diving into the importance of bone density screening. This simple test helps assess the strength of your bones and can detect osteoporosis early, a condition that makes bones weak and prone to fractures. 

As we age, especially for women going through menopause, the risk of osteoporosis increases. However, chronic diseases and certain medications can also affect bone health. That's why at our practice, Dr. Larry Kilby and our team, specialized in internal medicine, recommend bone density screening as part of your Medicare Annual Wellness Exam. 

During a physical exam, discussing women's health topics like bone density is crucial. By identifying potential issues early on, we can develop a personalized plan to keep your bones strong and prevent fractures. 

Don't wait until a bone breaks to take action! Schedule your bone density screening with us today to stay proactive about your bone health.
