The study will elucidate the effectiveness of an educational program in the prevention of osteoporosis and fractures. A random sample of the female population in Southern Finland (Uusimaa region) within the age group of 60-70 years was drawn from the population registry. From 1996 through 2000, 2181 women from the population register were recruited and randomly assigned to the intervention and to the control group. The subjects in the intervention group have been on a multidisciplinary program and the subjects in the control group received osteoporosis prevention information through the media and health care system. An end point is any fracture during the ten-year follow-up.
