INTRODUCTION: Women are said to be the principle and more vulnerable group to the primary osteoporosis subcategory of Involutional Osteoporosis Type I, which occurs postmenopausal, as an outcome of low estrogen that adversely affects the trabecular bone. Reduced estrogen in the menopause causes a detrimental effect on the bonebuilding cells, which impacts the natural procedure of the bone breakdown and repair. It is indicated that age, nutrition, education level, physical movement, and weight as most common risk factors for osteoporosis. Since change in the genetic factor is impossible to yield, the presence of adjustable factor is required for sustaining bone strength and bone density that assists in mitigating the osteoporosis and fracture risk. Osteoporosis is a serious health issue among them, with more than 1.5 million women suffering from fractures as a result of the disease each year, with 44.8 percent of them suffering from hip fractures. Menopausal women are stressed by these musculoskeletal issues. The quality of a woman's life can be significantly impacted by menopause.

METHODOLOGY: The research approach was quantitative and research design was Descriptive Survey design. The setting was a village named Takiya, Sasaram, Rohtas. There was 60 post- menopausal women were chosen as sample for study. The assessment was done on a semi structured tool with three different sections. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The findings obtained from the study were in two parts according to analysis of bio psychosocial tool scores. 38.3% of sample are at moderate risk and 61.7% of sample are at high risk and according to analysis of fracture risk assessment tool scores. 33.3% of sample are in mild risk, 35% of sample are in moderate risk, 31.7% of sample are in severe risk.
