If you haven't already, it would be a good time start researching local endocrinologists or perhaps even an Osteoporosis specialist. In addition research the various osteoporosis drugs as well as additional/adjunct approaches to handling osteoporosis. There is an abundance of information and experience here. You'll want to be prepared to ask many questions at your pcp appt. Glad you are joining us. OsteoBoston has had a variety of experts present and they post on YouTube.

Hi @joybo99. I was diagnosed by my PCP and Fosamax was prescribed. Subsequently, my podiatrist sent me to a metabolic bone specialist who is excellent, and he

prescribed Evenity for one year and then Tymlos. I currently am
under the care of a rheumatologist who specializes in osteoporosis and I started Reclast in May of 2025. I also have
an endocrinologist who is not up-to-date regarding osteoporosis and has demonstrated that he prefers to remain that way. So as you can see here, there are many specialists that treat osteoporosis. Using the overall search of "metabolic bone specialist " will show you a wide variety of doctors who have different specialties. My endocrinologist doesn't specialize in osteoporosis. One of my rheumatologists does, and my former rheumatologist doesn't.
Gosh, I hope I haven't complicated things for you!
It's very helpful to know what drugs are available so that you can ask your provider about each one and why they've chosen one over another. You can keep it simple and just learn the names or deep dive if you want to. Next thing is to ask your doctor what the long-term plan is. That's crucial, as some medications preclude others or need a specific sequence to optimize your results.
Glad you found your way here! Warm regards and best wishes.
