Osteoporosis can exist with osteoarthritis, the problem is- osteoporosis can go undetected for a long time. Unless you have a fracture, it may be difficult to know if you have the condition. With osteoarthritis, many people reduce their physical activity significantly due to pain which can open you up to developing osteopenia/osteoporosis.
