Objective: In this study, we aimed to assess the effects of bone mineral density with fibromyalgia on pain, depression and quality of life. Methods: In this case-control study, 100 women who were diagnosed as FMS and 100 women who were not diagnosed as FMS were included. Visual Analog Scala VAS , Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire FIQ and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scala HADS were used for the patients. Bone mineral density BMD of the participants was measured with dual energy x ray absorptiometry DXA method. Results: The number of the tender points of the women with fibromyalgia and VAS, FIQ, HAD-A and HAD-D scores were found significantly higher than of the control group p0.05 . When BMD measurements and HAD-A and HAD-D scores of the fibromyalgia patients were compared; in the L1-L4 region of the patients with anxiety and depression; BMD mass, T score and Z score were found respectively lower than of those without anxiety and depression p=0.011 p=0.040 . Conclusions: The FIQ scores of the patients with low L1-L4 T scores were found higher than of the patients with normal T scores. The L1-L4 region of the patients with anxiety and depression; BMD mass, T score and Z score were found respectively lower than of those without anxiety and depression. This study confirmed the concept that FMS is a risk factor for osteoporosis.
