Sorry, the FALSE
statement is:
Testosterone
replacement therapy will not help men experiencing osteoporosis.
Just as women
can partake in estrogen replacement therapy, men CAN have testosterone
replacement therapy.
The other statements
are TRUE because:
A
testosterone deficiency in men CAN lead to an increase in bone turnover
with bone formation at levels below normal leading to a net loss of bone.
Age-related
bone loss in men CAN be due to the
decrease in osteoblast function as a person ages.
A
deficiency of testosterone IS a significant risk factor for hip fracture
in elderly men
