What causes bones to break so easily—sometimes before birth? In this video, we break down osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a genetic disorder that disrupts the body’s ability to make strong collagen. From Type I to Type VIII, we explore how each type of OI affects the body differently, what gene mutations are responsible, and why some forms are more severe than others. Whether it’s mild bone fragility or life-threatening skeletal deformities, this video explains how a single protein can make all th
