Abstract
Weight, height and muscle mass appear to have impacts on bone formation and we recommend that nutritional intake should be closely monitored and a physical activity plan developed to optimise bone health. Pubertal progression should also be assessed in conjunction with serial densitometry assessments to track bone mass and density changes over time.
