This study was carried out to identify bone mineral density risk factors affecting women's BMD, and to analyze the relationship of BMD and other factors between age by physical measurement and questionnaires. The study subjects, 161 women(20~70 years) living in Seoul were divided into 4 age groups. T‐score BMD was significantly decreased according to increasing age and menopause. The rate of BMD risk subjects was significantly increasing with age and menopause. The rate of risk subjects were 8.3%, 19.4%, 22.2% and 50% by age groups, respectively. T‐score of groups was significantly decreased from 0.87(40 years) to −1.43(60 years). (P<0.001). Also systolic blood pressure were significantly increased from 114.9mmHg(20~30years) to 129.8mmHg(60 years). There were significant negative correlationship between T‐score and age(r=−0.395) menopause(r=−0.350), BMI(r=−0.226) systolic blood pressure (r=−0.153), alcohol drinking(r=0.225) (p<0.01). In conclusion, bone density decreased with increasing to age and BMI and systolic blood pressure, menopause and frequency alcohol consuming. To prevent osteoporosis, over 40 years women needed to be educated to maintain normal weight and the improvement of eating and living habits.
