(Crosby, MN) — Cuyuna Regional Medical Center and OBGYN Rachel Cady, M.D will be hosting a free virtual women’s health seminar focusing on Osteoporosis and Menopause on Thursday, May 12th beginning at 6pm.

“Stick and Stones Can Break Your Bones…Osteoporosis and Menopause”, as part of the Red Hot Mamas Menopause Management Education Program, women will learn how their bones are strongest in the their 20’s, but as they age, they become thinner and lighter which leave them vulnerable to fracture.

Women are 2-3 times more likely than men to suffer from osteoporosis, and half of women over age 50 will sustain an osteoporosis-related fracture and many women will die from complications of the disease.

“Osteoporosis and Menopause” is part of a series of seminars offered by CRMC’s Women’s Health and all questions from participants will be answered.
