here is a quote from an article on the mayo clinic web site. The first link is to the this article. the other links are for your own information

"In rare cases, the cause of juvenile osteoporosis can't be determined. Doctors refer to this as idiopathic juvenile osteoporosis. This rare form of osteoporosis typically occurs in previously healthy children between the ages of 4 and 16. Signs and symptoms include pain in the lower back, hips and feet, and difficulty walking. There's no specific treatment for idiopathic juvenile osteoporosis. However, most children with this condition have a complete recovery of bone tissue within two to four years after their diagnosis.''
