Background: Many factors can cause changes in bone mass density (BMD) in women with postmenopausal osteopenia. Aim: Determine factors associated with changes in BMD in postmenopausal women with osteopenia with the most influential risk factors within 1 year. Methods: Survey was conducted on 38 patients who were included in the inclusion criteria with a cross-sectional study analysis and had BMD data for the last 2 years, body mass index, and conducted interviews for physical activity, age of menopause, and duration of menopause. Blood samples were also taken to check total calcium levels, vitamin D levels and estrogen levels. Finally, patients are followed for up to 1 week for daily nutrition records. The relationship between these factors and changes in BMD was analyzed using Pearson's or Spearman's test. The analysis result was considered significant if p 0.05. However, there was a significant relationship between menopause onset and changes in ward mass density (r = 0,321, p = 0,04) and lumbal 1 (r = 0,333, p = 0,04), serum vitamin D levels and changes in great trochanter mass density (r = 0,336, p = 0,036), physical activity score and changes in ward mass density (r = -0,522, p < 0,01). Conclusion: menopause onset, vitamin D and physical activity are significantly associated with changes in BMD in female patients with postmenopausal osteopenia.
