Juvenile Primary Osteoporosis
Edit
This entry is adapted from the peer-reviewed paper https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/juvenile-primary-osteoporosis

Juvenile primary osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder characterized by thinning of the bones (osteoporosis) that begins in childhood. Osteoporosis is caused by a shortage of calcium and other minerals in bones (decreased bone mineral density), which makes the bones brittle and prone to fracture.
