@rudysmom - I reluctantly agreed to take Evenity - no fractures/severe OP - and am almost finished. The dr will order bone turnover markers following Evenity, but I'd like to order them again a few months out from the end of the Evenity course to see what impact HRT and nutrition and high-impact exercises will have had when some of the Evenity effects have lessened. The exercise class is for OP given at a medical facility.
I've been intrigued by the Japanese recommended treatment for OP: Vit K2-MK-4 and am considering that to follow Evenity for a few months. After that I will pay for a REMS scan to see if bone density gains have been maintained. My dr is ordering a DEXA scan at the end of the Evenity course, so I will have a recent comparison in order to make a future decision.

I’ve gone to 2 Endo’s for opinions. First one was useless, this one I really like. I asked both of them about K2-MK4 MK7 and both of them didn’t recommend it. First Dr said it was a waste of money and that Japan was only country to use it. He then said if I had money to waste I could donate to his website for research! Umm, hard pass. The other Dr said no to it too. I can’t remember her reasoning. Quite a few people on this forum use it and claim it helps. I’m just so overwhelmed right now I can’t even think about it. I need to look into it more. So many conflicting sources saying how much to take and when. Right now I’m tracking everything I eat and exercising everyday. All the while trying to tell myself I’ve got this. I always thought I was a strong person, but this has pulled the rug out from underneath me.
