A DEXA bone density scan is recommended for men over 70yrs and women over 65yrs, and anyone over 50yrs who is at increased risk of osteoporosis, including individuals with a history of fractures, certain medical conditions, or long-term steroid use. Lifestyle factors such as smoking, low body weight, and physical inactivity can also increase your risk.
