骨质疏松症和由此导致的骨折似乎是最常见的骨骼疾病，仅影响女性。骨质疏松症随着绝经和年龄的增长呈指数增长。因此，人口统计学数据似乎是骨质疏松症流行病学研究的最重要和最基本的数据。本研究旨在分析1960年至2060年的人口预测。我们使用韩国统计信息服务数据库作为骨质疏松症流行病学的基础数据，评估了韩国女性、绝经后和老年人的人口统计学变化。根据人口预测，自2015年以来，女性总人口将超过男性总人口，并在2030年之前达到最大值。到2030年，近一半的女性将进入绝经期，四分之一的老年妇女将进入老年。到2060年，绝经后妇女占女性总人口的比例将增加到59.8%。根据韩国的人口预测，到2060年，十分之六的妇女将绝经，十分之七的绝经后妇女将进入老年。预计老年妇女的比例将增加，骨质疏松症和骨质疏松性骨折也将急剧增加。绝经后和老年妇女的保健越来越受到卫生工作者的重视。
Osteoporosis and resultant fracture seems to be the most common skeletal disease, affecting female exclusively. Osteoporosis increases exponentially with menopause and age. Therefore the demographic data seems to be the most important & fundamental for the study of osteoporosis epidemiology. This study was to analyzed population projection from 1960 to 2060. We evaluated the demographic change of female, postmenopausal and elderly geripausal population in South Korea using Korean statistical information service database as basic fundamental data for osteoporosis epidemiology. According to population projection, the total female population will be exceeds the total male population since 2015 and maximize up to 2030. In 2030, nearly half of female will become postmenopausal and one fourth of women elderly will be geripausal. Of total female population in 2060, the proportion of postmenopausal women will be increased up to 59.8%. According to population projection in South Korea, six of ten women in 2060 will be postmenopausal and seven of ten postmenopausal women geripausal. As expected to increase proportion of elderly women, dramatic rise of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture also expected. Health providers pay more attention to postmenopausal and geripausal women health care.
