Key Points Question Are ambient and household air pollution associated with bone mass among adults in a low- and middle-income country? Findings In this population-based cross-sectional study of 3717 participants, ambient fine particulate matter air pollution was associated with low bone mineral content and bone mineral density. Household air pollution did not have a clear association with bone mass. Meaning In a peri-urban population of India, ambient air pollution was associated with poorer bone health.
