I started Osteostrong in Dec. 2023. I had a Dexa in May 2023 and it said my lumbar was -3.4 and hip was -1.6. I was very surprised at this. I am active and healthy. Anyway, I did not want to do the meds. So, after researching a lot ( I am a scientist by profession, so I like to look at the numbers!), I have been consistently been taking Calicum, vit k, vit d and boron. I was trying to increase the weight on my bones with weight vest and running a little, sometimes doing hops etc. Then I found Osteostrong luckily in my area. Also lucky was that they took our OnePass gym benefit from our heatlh insurance. Anyway, I have been doing it every week since then. They now have a Echolight device that a professional runs that is standard in Europe for bone density as it is more sensitive and extensive. I had that done a couple of weeks ago ($157) and with that, my lumbar was -2.0 and my hip was -1.8, my bone fragility is normal. It's hard to tell if it's the difference in the testing types, or the osteogenic loading or both. I will have another Dexa in a year, so that will be interesting. betterbones.com/bone-health-basics/will-the-new-ultrasound-device-replace-dexa-bone-density-testing/
