I am just beginning a protocol of bioidenticals…an estradiol patch, testosterone and progesterone. I just completed 2 years on Tymlos and I had great gains. My rheumatologist wants me on Reclast but my cardiologist suggested bioidenticals to assist with my lack of hormones and to potentially hold my bone improvements. I don’t want to be on an osteo med that is infused in my body for a year that I cannot stop if there are side effects. So I’m taking this route for now. I pray I will experience good results. I am 72.

I pray they work for you as well. I will be 72 soon. Thank you for your
response.

Thank you for the information. I want to give the bioidenticals a chance before going on any further osteo meds. I had such bad side effects from alendronate that even persisted after going off of it.

What brand of progesterone are you taking? Is it oral?
