Title: The Royal Osteoporosis Society Risk Checker

The Royal Osteoporosis Society (ROS) has been campaigning for the last 46 weeks, for the extension of Fracture Liaison Services (FLS), to give people with osteoporosis an early diagnosis.

A low public awareness of osteoporosis continues to mean few people step forward for assessments after breaking a bone.

Since its launch, in 2023, the five minute osteoporosis risk checker has allowed over 29,000 people to get an early diagnosis.  For the risk checker and to get a personalised report on your bone health please use the Fracture Risk Assessment Tools links on our osteoporosis page (https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/osteoporosis.php).

I can't fill out the forms fully as they won't accept feet and inches  ::)

Above the question to the right there's an option to select feet and inches. No option to select 'replace battery in bathroom scales' so my weight is a guess  :).
