2 points to add to the previous, thoughtful comments:
1. Docs are in the drug business & make their $ billing your insurance. If you’re lucky you might find a doc with a broader approach, but it’s been years since I met a doc that didn’t immediately assume I’m on drug therapy without any knowledge of my fracture history.
2. Drugs are not enough. If you were my mom or sister, I would suggest considering a drug therapy to increase bone—only way to find out if it’s right for you. But lifestyle management is as or more critical for avoiding fracture—without weighted exercises, nutrition, establishing a fall-safe environment more bone density is just a number.

When you say bone therapy do you mean bone drugs?
