Thank you so much!

My goal is to increase my bone density enough that if I fell off a horse I wouldn’t fracture. I want to start riding my young horse in 18 months.

Is that possible with HRT, Fosamax, and jumping rope several times a week?

Hi @prehorselover - It's pretty difficult to put a probability of a potential break when a horse falls on you. I assume it's pretty high regardless of your T-scores. 🙂

If I were you, I would try the alendronate + HRT for 18 months and get another DXA scan to see where you're at. I'm not sure what target you should be shooting for specifically, but if you feel it's still to low, then you could do another round of Evenity. That should really push you over the top.
