Pregnancy-Associated Osteoporosis

'Bone Up' by Dr Richie Abel (PhD) and Prof David Armstrong (MD)

Episode notes

The lads talk to Kirstie Donaghey and Prof Stuart Ralston about pregnancy-associated osteoporosis.

Kirstie suffered multiple osteoporotic fractures shortly after giving birth to her son Freddy and explains the patient journey and perspectives from fracture to treatment. Stuart is a Rheumatologist from the University of Edinburgh with an interest in bone disease. He talks to us about his new research project to investigate osteoporosis in pregnancy.
