      <Abstract>Background: Fractures in postmenopausal women are an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Osteoporosis is a silent and invisible disease characterized by a decrease in bone mineral density often seen in postmenopausal women. Aims and Objectives: Aim of the study is to correlate the body mass index (BMI) with bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women. The objective is to assess osteoporotic changes in postmenopausal women. Materials and Methods: Eighty postmenopausal women were included in the study. They were grouped into 40 women with BMI &gt;30 and 40 women with</Abstract>
