Course overview

This course provides healthcare professionals with a comprehensive review of bone complications associated with hyperthyroidism. Excess thyroid hormone accelerates bone turnover, leading to decreased bone mineral density and increased fracture risk. Participants will explore the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnostic approaches, and pharmacological management strategies. Emphasis is placed on early recognition, risk assessment, and evidence-based interventions to prevent long-term skeletal complications.
