Would you care to share more information that would help this group respond?
What is your most recent dexa results?
What is your age?
Have you been tested for any possible secondary causes? Secondary because, for most women menopause and loss of hormones is the primary cause.
How many months or years have you been menopausal?
Do you take any form of hormone replacement? If so, what?
Have you had any fractures that are menopause related?
Are you being treated by a doctor who is experienced and trained in treating osteoporosis such as an endocrinologist or rheumatologist or another type of physician
How much of your own research have you done already?
Thanks in advance.
