Hi Gravity3. I am a 66 yr old woman with severe osteoporosis. My T-score of my hip was -3.2. I am very concerned about taking Fosamax due to thr risk of ONJ and losing teeth. I am interested in Transdermal HRT but my PCP is against it. I read that you met a functional medicine provider. I don't know of any here in McKinney, TX. Do you know if a y other Dr that would consider HRT? I've met with 2 endocrinologist and they also were against it. Thanks for any help or suggestions.

@goseve, you might try looking through the database of practitioners listed at the Menopause Society. These doctors generally have knowledge of HRT. Best of luck to you!

What is their rationale for not considering it? Are they basing it on your
medical history? Are they basing it on the flawed women's health initiative
study? Have they read any of the latest findings and writings on
bioidentical hormone replacement therapy? In essence what are they using to
make their recommendations?
