I think it may be helpful if you are prepared to spend $13, 000 annually, which I haven't done.
Even going solo I have some improvement in bone density from first diagnosis in 2021. Lower spine now -3.6 (was -4), femoral neck now -1.5 (was -2.0) , hip now-2.0, was -2.5.
Some way to go but have recently found Dr Fishman's 12 yoga poses for osteoporosis (find on YouTube), I am now on hrt, take pure synergy bone renewal, plenty of green veg, bone broth, protein, have been going to gym for past year, also do heel drops.
I've had various setbacks including over active thyroid for a while but have still made progress. Not taking alendronate. So it is possible, think 'I am building stronger bones'
I look out all the time for attainable things I can do.
Btw I'm now 63.

@sharon31 i am 63 and was diagnosed last month with osteoporosis. Thank you for sharing your story and T- scores. You give me hope because my t scores are close to yours and DO Not want to take alendronate. I am doing research and have found Dr McCormick’s book Great Bones very helpful, also Your Bones by Lara Pizzorno. I have also started to do exercises from Sara Meeks and Margaret Martin. Good luck to you; please keep us updated

Your comments are encouraging! Would you mind noting at what age you started hrt and how often you go to the gym or do resistance training?
