With the FRAX trial questionnaire have conducted to determine major osteoporotic fracture risk, patient data were recorded via asking questions to patients. Statistics: In the statistical analysis, Independent Samples T-test was evaluated for group comparison of continuous variables, Pearson's chi-square test was used for the analysis of relations between categorical variables, and Pearson's correlation analysis was used to review the relations between continuous variables. Results: In our study, we determined the mean age of osteoporosis group as 60.6 while the frequency was demonstrated as 11.8%. Conclusion: For our region, we determined the age of onset for osteoporosis screening as 60 for women without a major osteoporotic fracture risk factor.tr10.18521/ktd.286409info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOsteoporosisbone mineral densityDXAArticle913034N/A
