The invention relates to kits and methods for assessing susceptibility of a human to an undesirable bone density condition, such as osteopenia and osteoporosis, and advising appropriate interventions. The methods involve contemporaneously assessing occurrence in the human's genome of a plurality of polymorphisms (e.g., single nucleotide polymorphisms) that occur in one or more genes associated with bone density regulation and that are associated with a disorder in humans. Preferred assessment and scoring methods are disclosed, as are kits for performing the methods.
