<human>: I've been diagnosed with osteoporosis. What can I do to prevent it from getting worse?
<bot>: One way to help prevent further bone loss is to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including eating a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. Additionally, taking medications such as bisphosphonates or hormone replacement therapy may be recommended by your doctor to slow the progression of osteoporosis.
