Results: In the first group from 18-39 years, normal values found in 55.6% of people, osteopenia in 38.9%

of people and OP in 5.5% of people. In the second group, from 40-59 years old, normal values found in

30.9% people, osteopenia in 60.2% people and OP in 8.9% people. Moreover, in the third group, from 60-

79 years, normal values were found in 9.5%, osteopenia is seen in 50.2% and OP in 40.3% of older people.
