Osteoporosis treatment or strontium citrate?

I had taken Forteo for one year and bone density declined, I was 55 years old at the time. Started taking AlgaeCal Plus for over two years, slight improvement in hips 2.4 now and spine declined to 3.8.
59 years old with a horrible bone density, just got a Prolia injection and I ache every day. I discontinued AlgaeCal Plus and just started taking OsteoMD which seems to be rated number one. I don’t know how well it’ll work but willing to try. All the very best to all of us suffering with osteoporosis. 🙏

Hello @lucy59 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Thank you so much for joining the discussion to share your experience with medications. It would be great for you to provide some periodic updates on your progress with OsetoMD and the Prolia injection so members like @suerc can learn from you.

How long until you will get an update on your bone density?

It was hard to tell if I had any bone pain as I had a shattered L4 at the time. My bone density was very low. I took for 2 yrs. It went up slightly.
