It aims to raise awareness among women of how to help prevent or manage the disease by adopting a healthy lifestyle.

Reasons include, limited availability of densitometers, restrictions in personnel permitted to perform scans, low awareness of usefulness of BMD testing, limited or nonexistent reimbursement.(2)

So take advantage of the time change and enjoy some exercise in those longer, warmer days" she said.
