Several risk factors of osteoporosis were compared and analysed between these two groups. Students t-test and chi-squre test were used for statistical comparison. The results obtained were as follows : 1. The incidence of osteoporosis was 30.8% of 195 menopausal women. 2. The age, duration of menopause, number of full term delivery, and serum alkaline phospause and estradiol concentration were significantly differnt in the osteoporotic group and the non-osteoporotic group. 3. The anthrophometric measurements, number of pregnancy, serum calcium, serum phosphorous concentration, and serum lipid profiles were not significantly different in the osteoporotic group and non-osteoporotic group.
