It is one of the few studies conducted in Romania on quality of life and it is important for future management of osteoporosis in postmenopausal Romanian women
Perspectives
Writing this article with my co-authors was a great pleasure. An assesement of quality of life should not be boring and time-consuming as clinicians believe. It is important and it shows us that giving a diagnosis and precribing treatment are not sufficient in a chronic condition like osteoporosis. More interventions are required for better management.
