Answer
Good News! Individuals with high scores correlate with high bone mineral density and a lower risk for osteoporosis.
Your genetics do not change, so your risk for osteoporosis due to genetics will not change. However, your age and sex affect your risk for osteoporosis, so your absolute risk for osteoporosis increases as you get older and if you are female (especially post-menopausal). T scores drop by an average of 0.18 over 10 years, so any person could expect a T score in 20 years that is 0.36 units below the current value. Women get osteoporosis four times more than men.
As a client with 23andme or Ancestry, all you need to do is order the "AxGen 23andme or Ancestry" option, greatly reducing your cost.
You will receive an email from AxGen with instructions. Once you upload your data to AxGen, you can then be screened for bone density.
You can view your personal results dashboard via AxGen's secure web application on any internet-connected device. Your AxGen Report is broken down into two sections: Injuries and Performance Markers. Each category in these sections displays your genetic results, recommendations on specific actions to take and video exercises.
