Forteo (teriparatide) followed by HRT: My Experience

@drsuefowler WOW! I am 62 years old, also nearly 20 years past menopause and never took HRT. Regretting that now but figured no chance of starting it at this late point--but perhaps i should reconsider? In Osteoporosis land I had TERRIBLE dexa last year so went on Evenity straight away and now having to decide between Reclast or Prolia.

@mayapath2health, I will be 75 this month, so I am much older than you are. The reason I didn't take Evenity was because of having to take Prolia or Reclast afterward. Since Evenity is very strong, I would be concerned that Estrogen might not be strong enough to hold in gains? Of course, I don't know. Reclast appears to have more side effects for some people than Prolia does. However, an osteoporosis specialist told me that I could take Reclast once and be done for life? Since you are only 62, you might consider HRT as a long term plan.
