The changes of vertebral bone mineral density (BMD; g/cm(2)) following oophorectomy were studied, using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) in 38 premenopausal and 244 oophorectomized women. Two biochemical indices of bone remodeling, urinary deoxypyridinoline (DPyr) for bone resorption and serum intact human osteocalcin (hOC) for bone formation, were also measured at the same time. The rate of bone loss in the first year after oophorectomy was 10.7%, while that in the second year was 5.7% (rapid phase), followed by a slow phase at the rate of 1.1%. The bone mass finally reached an osteoporotic level (BMD < 0.767 g/cm(2)) at 12 years after oophorectomy. The DPyr increased to reach a peak level in the first year, whereas the hOC increased and reached its peak level in the second year after surgery. The maximal bone loss in the first year is considered to be caused by the remarkable increase of bone resorption and the biological delay of the maximal increase in bone formation.
