Abstract
⺠Estrogen Therapy and Hormone Therapy effectively prevent and treat osteoporosis but have significant side effect profiles. ⺠SERMs (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators) exhibit a more favorable side effect profile ⺠However currently available SERMs are substantially less effective in bone than classical estrogens ⺠Discussion of ER pharmacology and ligands including endogenous SERMs ⺠Translation of ER pharmacology into new medicines (such as TSECs) for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis.
