Bone Health in Cancer Survivors: What You Should Know - Michael McClung, MD, FACP, FASBMR

Cancer treatments can have lasting effects on bone health, increasing the risk of bone loss and fractures long after therapy ends. In this SurvivHERS session, Dr. Michael McClung will explain how cancer and its treatments impact bone strength, who is most at risk, and what you can do to protect your bones. He’ll review screening recommendations, lifestyle strategies, supplements, and medical treatment options in clear, practical terms. Designed for survivors, this discussion will empower you with the knowledge you need to take proactive steps toward maintaining strong, healthy bones.
