The answer to "is it too late?" requires some research on the safety of starting/restarting HRT. Also, consulting your Drs.

@callum2023 diagnosed with PMR in 2024, but think I had it a couple of years before diagnosis. Osteoporosis before starting on prednisone. Can’t tolerate fosamax, and once you start Prolia you can’t stop, as your bones deteriorate faster than the regular rate of loss. I have started on HRT, take calcium, vit D, mK2, strontium citrate, melatonin, boron, and a multi vit. I do weight bearing exercising, and walk 3-5 miles a day. Last dexa showed significant improvement in lumbar spine, and slight improvement in hips. I am currently on 2mg prednisone, and started on Low Dose Naltrexone in hopes it can help me taper off prednisone.
