Need advice for wife

I’ll add a few thoughts to the discussion,

The Superman pose (spinal overextension) is not recommended for someone with severe osteoporosis, so double check on that.

HRT can help slow bone loss, but with a lowest T-score of −3.5, an anabolic-first approach makes more sense than an HRT → PTH or HRT → HRT + PTH sequence. Between the anabolic options, I’d lean toward a PTH analog as well. A TBS showing deteriorated microarchitecture would reinforce that choice.

@mayblin Yes, we're definitely leaning towards teriparatide at this point.

I'll cross that exercise off the list until later, when she has hopefully gained bone density.

Do people take HRT + anabolic at the same time? My wife hasn't had a hormone checkup, and I assume the doctor will be ordering that along with other tests.
