Doctors ignorance re bio-identicals is no reason to forego them. Do your own research. I was on them for years and loved what they did for my body as well as my disposition teaching adolescents. I am presently reading studies that indicate one is never too old for bio-identicals after being told differently and going off them. I am presently 74 and have osteoporosis and may not have the markers I have now if I'd continue.

I'm making an appointment this week to see about starting again.

My friend was on Fosamax for years and was informed by her dentist that her jaw was too deteriorated to have a tooth implant. And another friend ended up in the hospital for serious kidney issues after taking Prolia injection.... again, for years.

thank you for your reply. I do think its all a delicate balance. I've known for 20 years that cancer corners play in any HRT I do which is why I did the topical for 10 years. The endocrinologist said I have to go somewhere else for the HRT. But my tooth crumbled last night so I guess I'll be seeing the dentist first!
When you spoke about your friends deteriorated jaw it sounds like you think the Fosamax didn't help. And the Prolia caused the kidney issues. But they reason your friend may have been on the Fosamax is because she already had those bone problems and the Fosamax just didn't help that area. And maybe it wasn't the Prolia that caused the kidney issues but a doctors ignorance at pretesting for hypercalcemia and drinking enough water? I have never found a medicine that didn't have side effects. And we also have to do our own research now because the doctors are not doing it for us! the medicines are very powerful and we must listen to our bodies FIRST.
