Back ground: Osteoporosis is a skeletal condition that affects the entire body. illness characterized by a decrease mass of bone, reduced Bone Mineral Density (BMD), deterioration of microarchitectural integrity and skeletal toughness, as a result of which bone fragility and fracture risk are raised, primarily at the spine and femur levels. Estradiol (E2)it is The most strong as well as widespread member of estrogen steroid hormone class. Estradiol obtained from their mother, their own gonads, and produced locally in their brains is administered to fetuses and infants. Calcium is most often associated with healthy bones and teeth, but it also plays an important part in blood clotting, muscle contraction, appropriate heart rhythms, and neuron activity. About 99 percent of the calcium in the body is stored in bones, with the remaining 1% found in blood, muscle, and other tissues. Intracellular calcium (Ca) levels are critical in the production of aldosterone. Potassium is a mineral that is required by all human tissues. It is commonly referred to as an electrolyte because it carries a little electrical charge that stimulates a variety of cell and nerve processes.. Total-body potassium (K+) concentration and proper distribution of K+ across the cell membrane are critical for good cellular function. Phosphorus is a mineral that is present in your bones. Phosphorus, like calcium, is necessary for the production of strong, healthy bones as well as the preservation of other aspects of your body's health.. Normal functioning kidneys can eliminate excess phosphorus from your blood. In marine settings, phosphorus (P) is one of the limiting macronutrients for algal development. Method: 100 patients clinically diagnosed as osteoporosis . tow study groups have been investigated: (25 in premenopause and 25 in postmenopause ). The Aim of study is determine the level of some parameters(albumin, calcium, potassium, phosphor, E2 ) in premenopausal osteoporosis and postmenopause osteoporosis and comparison to control group in women .Result : The current study was significant no difference in albumin level in osteoporosis, and decreased significant (P≤ 0.05) in levels of calcium and phosphor in osteoporosis,also increased significant(P≤ 0.05) in potassium level in osteoporosis,as well as there was a significance decreased (P≤ 0.05) in E2 hormone concentration of osteoporosis women compared to control .Conclusion : the albumin level no effected in osteoporosis when compared with control, the level of calcium and phosphor decreased in osteoporosis when compared with healthy women, the level of potassium increased in osteoporosis when compared with control group,the E2 hormone decreased in patients with osteoporosis, and this decreased is more significant in postmenopausal age than premenopause.
