Letrozole and osteoporosis

Hi all, diagnosed beginning of Feb. Due for surgery 23/03 was actually en route when received call that cancelled. Surgeon self-isolating! She rang me and told me surgery cancelled until further notice. Have been put on Letrozole in meantime as cancer is Er+. Been reading all bumf about side-effects. Does anybody know if I am more likely to be prone to osteoporosis as I already suffer from osteoarthritis in many of my joints.
