Osteoporosis and ostearthritis are 2 different things. The 1st can happen with age but hastened with aramatose inhibitors, eating disorders and menopause. The second is a very common condition also associated with age, being female, obesity, genetic risks and trauma like a fracture. Arthritis actually causes additional bone growth as well as cartilage thinning. The chemo can cause all your joints that are affected to ache. ..mine sure did, but I haven't heard of it causing actual arthritis. It can give you symptoms like arthritis at the time you have it though.
