Abstract

Purpose: To examine the impact of physical activity on bone mineral density (BMD) in premenopausal women and its role in preventing osteoporosis, aligning with Sustainable Development Goal 3 (Good Health and Well-Being).Methods: A narrative review was conducted, analyzing 38 published studies, including experimental studies, randomized controlled trials (RCTs), systematic reviews, and meta-analyses.The review focused on the relationship between various forms of physical activity and BMD outcomes in premenopausal women.Results: Evidence indicates that regular physical activity, particularly weight-bearing and resistance exercises, enhances peak bone mass and increases BMD in premenopausal women.Community-based programs, structured interventions, and the inclusion of advanced exercise techniques were shown to further improve adherence and effectiveness.These activities contribute to stronger skeletal health and reduce the risk of osteoporosis later in life.Conclusion: Physical activity during premenopause is an effective preventive strategy to improve BMD and protect against osteoporosis.Supportive community programs and structured exercise initiatives can enhance participation and maximize bone health outcomes, reinforcing the importance of preventive strategies for lifelong skeletal health.
