Abstract

Rationale: There is still information about pregnancy- and lactation-associated osteoporosis, which is a type of osteoporosis that occurs in women with normal bone in the late pregnancy or lactation period. Patient concerns: Six cases of pregnancy- and lactation-associated osteoporosis diagnosed in our Endocrinology and Orthopedics Departments from January 2018 to June 2020 were retrospectively studied. The baseline characteristics, clinical features, laboratory findings, radiological manifestations, and follow-up outcomes were analyzed and compared with previous reports. Diagnoses: All six patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging scans and vertebral compressive fractures were detected in four patients. Outcomes: All six patients received conservative treatment and no surgical intervention. After a mean follow-up of 27.3 months (range 24–31 months), the symptoms of the six patients were significantly relieved, although four patients still had low back pain to varying degrees.
