I cannot explain why some women get the test and some do not. That would be a question for your doctor. It was not invented yet when I started my journey. However I did find this information about it.

The doctor who said you had osteoporosis, did they address this issue at all? Have you asked him about the risk of fracture?

My doctor didn’t address it. When o inquired further he flippantly said ‘oh we could give you injections’ that was it No recommendation or explanation. I’m on the process of getting another oncologist. Waiting on a call today or tomorrow.
