Therefore, it is of interest to investigate the association between vitamin D levels and bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women. Hence, a total of 110 participants were analyzed for serum vitamin D levels and BMD at the lumbar spine and femoral neck. The results revealed a positive correlation between vitamin D levels and BMD, with higher vitamin D levels associated with better bone health. Thus, we show that maintaining adequate vitamin D levels may help prevent bone loss in postmenopausal women. Further research is needed to explore the role of vitamin D supplementation in osteoporosis prevention.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.6026\/973206300215034","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,19]],"date-time":"2026-01-19T10:43:03Z","timestamp":1768819383000},"page":"5034-5037","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Association of vitamin D levels with bone mineral density in postmenopausal women"],"prefix":"10.6026","volume":"21","author":[{"name":"Department of Physiology, PDU Medical College, Rajkot, Gujarat, India","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Unnati","family":"M.
