Sex hormone status may modulate rate of expansion of proximal femur diameter in older women alongside other skeletal regulators.

CONTEXT: Little is known of associations between hip geometry and skeletal regulators. This is important because geometry is a determinant of both hip function and resistance to fracture. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to determine the effects of sex hormone status and other candidate regulators on hip geometr...
