Thank you! I already had the osteoporosis diagnosis when I started HRT fairly recently so I’m hopeful that it will make a difference (or at least make a difference).

My next DEXA is supposed to be in September so we shall see

Hello. I have been on bioidentical hormones for 20 years. I am now 67. I have osteoporosis with 1.9- 2.8 numbers. They have improved with the hormones especially L1-4 at 1.9 one time 2.5. I just started with the testosterone, estradiol pellets. My doctor feels they will deliver a greater amount of hormone to my body. Everybody is different. Your blood has to be measured to see the level of hormone you need I also take compounded progesterone. I am hopeful this well, either improve my scores or keep them the same. I do not want to take osteo meds. Also vitamins and strength training. Pilates are helpful.

Hi @rgibson123 othee than Dexa, has your bone markers been checked before and during HRT?

Compounded or regular BHRT?
