Abstract

This Editorial aims at discussing premenopausal age decade as a period susceptible to osteoporosis and other adverse actions of endo- and exogenous glucocorticoids in excess, with probable interference on adaptation to pregnancy and lactation in female offspring.

 Keywords: Glucocorticoids; Ontogeny; Premenopausal
