You can, but get a DEXA each year to make sure you're not losing ground. Are you taking supplements? Vitamins D3 and K2 are important. Look into collagen peptides (a tablespoon a day mixed into a liquid.) Weight-bearing exercises.

Thank you. I have started weight bearing exercises as well as walking and other exercises. I do take D3 and K2 supplements as well as magnesium. My PA said to take calcium but gave no idea as to how much. If I need this also, what strength should I be taking and what should I look for in the kind of calcium I get?
