@debib My doctor doesn't use Prolia due to rebound.

You might want to get a copy of Dr. Keith McCormick's book "Great Bones." He suggests limiting Prolia to 1-3 doses, the fewer the better, and has some complicated instructions for transitioning to Reclast or Fosamax.

Yes an endocrinologist is a good idea! In my experience PCP's tend to prescribe bisphosphonates or Prolia but endos will first prescribe a bone builder like Fortoe, Tymlos or Evenity first and then "lock in" with Reclast or Fosamax.

If your osteoporosis is new and mild you can talk to your doctor about what to do after Prolia, probably Reclast or Fosamax, and then try some natural approaches. McCormick writes about those in the book as well.

Seems like you are already pretty well informed!
