The study design is observational, where patients were recruited consecutively in a Primary Care Center of Salamanca (Spain). To get information we used a socio demographic questionnaire. The EuroQol-5D, questionnaire designed to assess quality of life related to health and QUALEFFO questionnaire specifically designed to assess patients with osteoporosis that had not been applied in the field of Primary Care. Results: For the group of women, the differences found between the osteoporotic, and no osteoporotic women were statistically significant, for all dimensions of both questionnaires. However, for the group of men these differences were significant only to certain dimensions.
