Is osteoporosis contagious?

Osteoporosis: A debilitating disease that can be prevented and treated.
Osteoporosis is a disease in which bones become fragile and more likely to break. If not prevented or if left untreated, osteoporosis can progress painlessly until a bone breaks. These broken bones, also known as fractures, occur typically in the hip, spine, and wrist.
Any bone can be affected, but of special concern are fractures of the hip and spine. A hip fracture almost always requires hospitalization and major surgery. It can impair a person's ability to walk unassisted and may cause prolonged or permanent disability or even death. Spinal or vertebral fractures also have serious consequences, including loss of height, severe back pain, and deformity.
Millions of Americans are at risk. While women are four times more likely than men to develop the disease, men also suffer from osteoporosis.

i think it's hereditary.

No, it is not contagious. See the article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/osteoporosi...
No one can catch osteoporosis like a cold or flu. However, someone can be predisposed to the condition based upon their race. For example, races who tend to be more petite or finer boned, such as Asians have a higher rate of osteoporosis.
