I have osteopenia but on the brink of osteoporosis with a high fracture rate of 10% risk of hip fracture in 10 years. I am 74. I am wondering if I should wait to get a diagnosis of osteoporosis before starting medication such as alendronate.
My doctor would like me to start medication but is not pushing it. Any thoughts?
