About this calculator
The FRAX Hip 10-year calculator is a useful tool to evaluate the risk of hip fracture in women aged 40 to 90 years. It was developed based on the FRAX hip formula, which takes into account several risk factors, including age, sex, bone mineral density, history of fractures, steroid use and others.
This calculator is especially useful for women who are about to turn 65 and have other risk factors for osteoporotic fractures. It helps identify individuals at risk and need proper evaluation and treatment.
It is essential to remember that the FRAX hip is a supporting tool and does not replace clinical evaluation by a healthcare professional. If you are concerned about your hip fracture risk, we recommend consulting a specialized orthopedic doctor.
The FRAX hip is also a useful tool for doctors and healthcare professionals who want to evaluate the risk of hip fracture in their patients.
