Brief Summary   Early screening would help in determining the extent of osteoporosis and further aid in intervention towards its prevention among young adults. With this aim the researcher felt a need to find out the prevalance of Osteoporosis among young adults in the current setting. Identifying the risk may help the individuals with osteopenia to reverse the condition as much as possible through diet, lifestyle modification or atleast by preventing the risk of fracture.
